How Life Works Here
Potteric Carr Road is located in Doncaster. Crime is a significant concern, with 757 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 232 violent offences were recorded (31% 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. The nearest transport stop is 82m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £3,748,750. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 196m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 41 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
