Area safety score 15/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.

How Life Works Here
Blenheim Road South is located in Middlesbrough. Crime is a significant concern, with 445 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 191 violent offences were recorded (43% 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 Low Cost Convenience Store (convenience, 109m). The nearest transport stop is 73m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £110,000, with strong growth of 16% over five years. Based on 41 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 8 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 339m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 44 out of 100 for liveability. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
