How Life Works Here
Hillingdon Road is located in Middlesbrough. Crime is a significant concern, with 318 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 167 violent offences were recorded (53% of total). 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 (Runnymede Green) is 230m away. The median property price is £72,500, with moderate growth of 7% over five years. Based on 8 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 216m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The profile suggests appeal to both first-time buyers and young professionals. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
