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.

Daily access score 16/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.
Only 2 transactions recorded. The £185,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
How Life Works Here
Bailey Street is located in Exeter, Devon. Crime is a significant concern, with 1098 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 485 violent offences were recorded (44% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub 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 Arcadia (pub, 21m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Paris Street) is 105m away. The median property price is £185,000. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 4 schools within 2 km. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 442m 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 45 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
