Oldfield Lane

Ealing, Greater London, England

Urban residential Mixed character Well-connected Risk: Medium Starter home Medium confidence

Reality check: May work as a first purchase, but price data is limited. Good transport links add convenience. But safety (25/100) is a real concern that shouldn't be ignored. Price data (£20,000) is based on only 1 transaction and may not be reliable.

How Life Works Here

Oldfield Lane is located in Ealing, near Greenford, Greater London. Crime is a significant concern, with 800 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 246 violent offences were recorded (31% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Greenford Library (library, 114m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 154m away. The median property price is £20,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation. There are 14 schools within 2 km, 14 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 383m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The profile suggests appeal to both first-time buyers and young professionals. Overall, this street scores 43 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
