How Life Works Here
Orchard Terrace is located in Bath and North East Somerset, near Bath. Crime is a significant concern, with 440 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 264 violent offences were recorded (60% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Shophouse Road) is 62m away. The median property price is £278,000. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
