Things You Should Know

How Life Works Here
Navigation Street is located in City of Nottingham, near Nottingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 751 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 310 violent offences were recorded (41% 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. The nearest transport stop is 301m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £250,000, with strong growth of 33% over five years. Based on 32 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. There are 7 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 40 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
