How Life Works Here
St Johns Close is located in Middlesbrough. Crime is a significant concern, with 682 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 256 violent offences were recorded (38% 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 135m away. The median property price is £91,500. Based on 4 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 5 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 318m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street falls within Flood Zone 3 — a high-risk area for flooding from river sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. The profile suggests appeal to both first-time buyers and young professionals. Overall, this street scores 44 out of 100 for liveability. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
