How Life Works Here

Lansdowne Place is located in Blackpool. Crime is a significant concern, with 2322 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 1174 violent offences were recorded (51% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The nearest transport stop is 73m away (bus and tram). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £99,000. Based on 3 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 2 schools within 2 km. 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. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 34 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
