How Life Works Here
Colvile Street is located in City of Derby, near Derby. Crime is a significant concern, with 435 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 170 violent offences were recorded (39% 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 atm (atm, 67m). The nearest transport stop is 79m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £157,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 13 schools within 2 km, 13 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 152m 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 40 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
