How Life Works Here
Goose Street is located in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire. Crime is a significant concern, with 602 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 204 violent offences were recorded (34% 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 an ATM at 116m. The nearest transport stop is 127m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £172,293. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 213m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 43 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
