How Life Works Here
Jubilee Avenue is located in Chelmsford, near Broomfield, Essex. Crime is a significant concern, with 478 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 337 violent offences were recorded (71% 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. The nearest transport stop is 182m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £325,000, with exceptional growth of 103% over five years. Based on 15 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation. There are 2 schools within 2 km. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 365m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 39 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
