How Life Works Here
Bellway is located in Milton Keynes, near Woburn Sands. Crime is a significant concern, with 567 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 314 violent offences were recorded (55% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area 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 (Garden Centre) is 100m away. The median property price is £300,000, with strong growth of 17% over five years. Based on 19 transactions recorded since 2014. There are 2 schools within 2 km. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
