How Life Works Here
Arthur Taylor Street is located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. Crime is a significant concern, with 414 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 144 violent offences were recorded (35% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 178m away. The median property price is £93,000, with strong growth of 19% over five years. Based on 5 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 4 schools within 2 km, 4 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 423m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The area sits within Flood Zone 2 (river flooding), indicating medium flood risk. It is worth checking the Environment Agency flood map for current details. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 42 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
