Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 344 violent offences were recorded (56% 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. Public transport is accessible, with rail stops within reach. The nearest is about 409m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates, with larger households suggesting families. There are 14 schools within 2 km, 13 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 391m away.
