Area safety score 15/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.
Only 1 transaction recorded. The £120,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
How Life Works Here
Grendon Road is located in Exeter, Devon. Crime is a significant concern, with 1033 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 442 violent offences were recorded (43% 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. Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 102m away. The median property price is £120,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 459m 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 46 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.
