How Life Works Here
Herrick Street is located in Liverpool. Crime is a significant concern, with 605 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 193 violent offences were recorded (32% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub 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 117m away. The median property price is £60,250, with strong growth of 42% over five years. Based on 60 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 16 schools within 2 km, 14 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 188m 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 44 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
