How Life Works Here
Gasking Street is located in City of Plymouth, near Plymouth. Crime is a significant concern, with 447 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 153 violent offences were recorded (34% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Most everyday needs — supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés — are within a reasonable walk. The closest is Friary Mill (cafe, 15m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Gasking Street) is 19m away. The median property price is £199,550. Based on 2 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. The nearest school is just 105m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit young professionals. Overall, this street scores 57 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 5% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
