How Life Works Here
Frederick Street is located in Charnwood, near Loughborough, Leicestershire. Crime is a significant concern, with 1250 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 513 violent offences were recorded (41% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub 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 closest is Queens Park Cafe (cafe, 93m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus and tram stops within reach. The nearest is about 246m away. The median property price is £242,950, with strong growth of 16% over five years. Based on 29 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 7 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 212m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 49 out of 100 for liveability, above the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
