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.
Transport score 10/100. Daily tasks likely require a car. Limited public transport options within walking distance.
Low walkability (25) and transport (10) narrow the pool of potential renters. Consider whether the yield justifies the risk.
Only 1 transaction recorded. The £250,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
Transport score 10/100 with no significant infrastructure planned. Car dependency limits property appeal and constrains future value growth.
How Life Works Here
Mill Street is located in Coventry. Crime is a significant concern, with 444 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 243 violent offences were recorded (55% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. The nearest public transport is 1,314m away. The median property price is £250,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, with smaller households typical of singles or couples. There are 12 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 4 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 313m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 38 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
