How Life Works Here
Lime Kiln Road is located in City of Bristol, near Bristol. Crime is a significant concern, with 681 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 309 violent offences were recorded (45% 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. Public transport is accessible, with bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 36m away. The median property price is £347,500. Based on 118 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates, with larger households suggesting families. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 3 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 384m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The area sits within Flood Zone 2 (sea flooding), indicating medium flood risk. It is worth checking the Environment Agency flood map for current details. The profile suggests appeal to both property investors and young professionals. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 42 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
