How Life Works Here
Long Yard is located in Camden, near London, Greater London. Crime is a significant concern, with 422 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 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. The closest is Redemption Roasters (cafe, 27m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus and tram links nearby. The nearest stop (Coley Street) is 252m away. The median property price is £3,050,000. Based on 3 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 19 schools within 2 km, 19 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 11 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 123m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The data suggests this area could appeal to young professionals. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 52 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
