Things You Should Know
Area safety score 15/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.
How Life Works Here
Heathfield Road is located in City of Portsmouth, near Portsmouth. Crime is a significant concern, with 500 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 237 violent offences were recorded (47% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. Most everyday needs — supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés — are within a reasonable walk. The closest is The Grapes (pub, 57m). Public transport is accessible, with bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 100m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 17 schools within 2 km, 16 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 349m 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 first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 43 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
