Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 229 violent offences were recorded (59% of total). This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Clifton Fisheries (fast food, 13m). The nearest transport stop is 107m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £74,625, with exceptional growth of 53% over five years. Based on 40 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 13 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 347m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 40 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
