How Life Works Here
Winsham Grove is located in Birmingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 467 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 240 violent offences were recorded (51% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Daily amenities are excellent, with 9 facilities within walking distance, including convenience (2), fast_food (2), and hairdresser (2). The closest is No Limit Cutz Barber Shop (hairdresser, 74m). Public transport is accessible, with rail stops within reach. The nearest is about 571m away. The median property price is £219,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, with larger households suggesting families. There are 15 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 385m away. 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 51 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 10% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
