How Life Works Here
Pelham Avenue is located in City of Nottingham, near Nottingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 415 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 182 violent offences were recorded (44% 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 (Redcliffe Road) is 145m away. The median property price is £492,500, with exceptional growth of 248% over five years. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation. There are 16 schools within 2 km, 15 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 53m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and property investors. Overall, this street scores 49 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
