How Life Works Here
Cricklepit Street is located in Exeter, Devon. Crime is a significant concern, with 497 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 249 violent offences were recorded (50% 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. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (The Quay) is 103m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. 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. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The area sits within Flood Zone 2, indicating medium flood risk. It is worth checking the Environment Agency flood map for current details. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 44 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
