How Life Works Here
Paris 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 dominates reports. 485 violent offences were recorded (44% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Most everyday needs — supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés — are within a reasonable walk. The closest is Cuckoo Taproom & Bottleshop (bar, 53m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Sidwell Street) is 115m away. The median property price is £1,410,000, though prices have fallen 83% over five years. Based on 3 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 6 schools within 2 km, 3 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 424m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The data suggests this area could appeal to young professionals. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 49 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.
