How Life Works Here

Shaftesbury Gardens is located in Ealing, near Acton, Greater London. Crime is a significant concern, with 411 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 140 violent offences were recorded (34% 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. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus and tram links nearby. The nearest stop (Old Oak Common Lane) is 89m away. The median property price is £318,500. Based on 46 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 14 schools within 2 km, 13 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 57 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
