How Life Works Here
Kilbourn Street is located in City of Nottingham, near Nottingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 414 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 194 violent offences were recorded (47% 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. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus and tram links nearby. The nearest stop (Huntingdon Street) is 101m away. The median property price is £235,000, with exceptional growth of 51% over five years. Based on 33 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 12 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 51 out of 100 for liveability, above the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
