Area safety score 15/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.

How Life Works Here
Chester Street is located in Cheshire East, near Crewe. Crime is a significant concern, with 1097 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 506 violent offences were recorded (46% 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 Rudaw's Salon (hairdresser, 37m). The nearest transport stop is 112m away (rail and bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £223,750. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 499m away. 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.
