Weighted liveability indicators
Access, transport, services
Transport-hub proxy classification. This uses mapped services and recorded incident counts. Footfall, noise and suitability for settled living have not been measured.
Flood mapping
The mapped street point is classified as Zone 1 in the Environment Agency planning dataset. This covers river and sea flooding; it does not assess every property or surface-water risk.
Dataset revision: 2026-05-20. This is the dataset revision date, not a property inspection date.

Score 15/100. This is an LSOA incident-count proxy, not a population-adjusted crime rate.
How Life Works Here
James Street is located in Cheshire West and Chester, near Chester. The associated LSOA area has 465 recorded incidents from 2025-08 to 2026-07. Incident rows were observed in 12 of the 12 selected months. These are area counts, not street-level incidents or population-adjusted rates; they do not establish a comparison with local or national averages. The dataset records 20 nearby amenities. The closest is Altr (hairdresser, 11m). Distances do not establish a walkable route or current opening hours. Recorded nearby transport modes: rail and bus. The nearest mapped stop (Hoole Way) is 133m away. Check current routes and service frequency with the operator. The price sample is too small to publish a median; at least eight recorded transactions are required.

There are 7 schools within 2 km, 6 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. Proximity does not establish admissions eligibility, catchment or personal suitability. The highest available weighted profile is young professionals at 87/100. This is a comparison of recorded inputs, not a recommendation or a forecast of returns. The available indicators produce a composite score of 50/100. Its recorded district percentile is 58.
