How Life Works Here
Fewston Close is located in Middlesbrough. Crime is a significant concern, with 425 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 153 violent offences were recorded (36% 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. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Chevin Walk) is 175m away. The median property price is £80,000, with strong growth of 27% over five years. Based on 3 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 10 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 167m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. The profile suggests appeal to both property investors and first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 54 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 7% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
