How Life Works Here
Lathkill Close is located in City of Nottingham, near Nottingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 879 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 299 violent offences were recorded (34% 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 (Bulwell Bus Station) is 139m away. The median property price is £96,500, with strong growth of 16% over five years. Based on 7 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 6 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. Overall, this street scores 50 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
