How Life Works Here
Waterloo Terrace is located in Leeds. Crime is a significant concern, with 538 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 221 violent offences were recorded (41% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Daily amenities are excellent, with 12 facilities within walking distance, including cafe (2), pharmacy (2), and atm (1). The closest is Cooplands (bakery, 19m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 120m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 6 schools within 2 km, 6 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 243m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit young professionals. Overall, this street scores 53 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 13% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
