Things You Should Know
Area safety score 15/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.
Daily access score 16/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.
Only 1 transaction recorded. The £180,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
How Life Works Here
Greenhow Gardens is located in Leeds. Crime is a significant concern, with 426 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 179 violent offences were recorded (42% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Homeboy Pizza Co (fast food, 72m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Burley Medical Centre) is 168m away. The median property price is £180,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 12 schools within 2 km, 11 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 277m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and first-time buyers. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 50 out of 100 for liveability, above the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
