How Life Works Here

Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 473 violent offences were recorded (40% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street.

The nearest stop (Leeming Street) is 183m away. The median property price is £165,000, with exceptional growth of 59% over five years. Based on 17 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 8 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 50 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
