Things You Should Know
Transport score 20/100. Daily tasks likely require a car. Limited public transport options within walking distance.
Prices grew 14% over 5 years, but environment scores only 18/100. Growth may not be sustainable without local improvements.
Low walkability (25) and transport (20) narrow the pool of potential renters. Consider whether the yield justifies the risk.
Environment score 18/100 is low for a location with limited urban amenities. Nearby road noise, industrial activity, or air quality issues may affect quality of life.
Transport score 20/100 with no significant infrastructure planned. Car dependency limits property appeal and constrains future value growth.
