How Life Works Here
Alma Street is located in City of Derby, near Derby. Crime is a significant concern, with 554 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 274 violent offences were recorded (49% 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 closest is Daily Choice (convenience, 35m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 103m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 19 schools within 2 km, 19 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 4 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 85m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. 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.
