How Life Works Here

Fish Street is located in Leeds. Crime is a significant concern, with 8055 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 2979 violent offences were recorded (37% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Daily amenities are excellent, with 20 facilities within walking distance, including clothes (5), fast_food (4), and hairdresser (3). The nearest transport stop is 16m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £2,075,000. 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 11 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 6 are rated Outstanding. 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 profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and retirees. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 53 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 1% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
