How Life Works Here
Claremont Road is located in Newcastle upon Tyne. Crime is a significant concern, with 601 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 296 violent offences were recorded (49% 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. Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 195m away. The median property price is £167,750, with strong growth of 23% over five years. Based on 32 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 4 schools within 2 km, 4 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 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 45 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.
