How Life Works Here
Pennhome Avenue is located in City of Nottingham, near Nottingham. Crime is a significant concern, with 355 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Sherwood Late Night Pharmacy (pharmacy, 80m). The nearest transport stop is 144m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £98,000, with moderate growth of 2% over five years. Based on 7 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 10 schools within 2 km, 9 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. The profile suggests appeal to both property investors and first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 42 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
