How Life Works Here
Eglinton Avenue is located in City of Kingston upon Hull, near Kingston upon Hull. Crime is a significant concern, with 418 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 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 The Crooked Billet (pub, 121m). The nearest transport stop is 147m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £144,000, with exceptional growth of 112% over five years. Based on 13 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, and a notable retired population. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 426m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street falls within Flood Zone 3 — a high-risk area for flooding from river and sea sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 37 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
