How Life Works Here

Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 147 violent offences were recorded (42% of total). This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive.

Rented accommodation predominates. There are 5 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally.

The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
