How Life Works Here
Burnside Street is located in City of Derby, near Derby. Crime is a significant concern, with 421 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 202 violent offences were recorded (48% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area 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 Charming Smiles Dentist (dentist, 77m). The nearest transport stop is 85m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £100,000, with exceptional growth of 51% over five years. Based on 24 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 6 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 334m 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. Overall, this street scores 40 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
