How Life Works Here
Raglan Street is located in Gloucester, Gloucestershire. Crime is a significant concern, with 477 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 193 violent offences were recorded (40% 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 links nearby. The nearest stop (Picturedome Theatre) is 132m away. The median property price is £99,000, with strong growth of 42% over five years. Based on 25 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 12 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 89m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street falls within Flood Zone 3 — a high-risk area for flooding from river sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 45 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.
