Area safety score 25/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.

How Life Works Here
Ilminster Court is located in Newcastle upon Tyne. Crime is a significant concern, with 404 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 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. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Brunton Lane-Tudor Way) is 65m away. The median property price is £174,975, with a slight decline of 6% over five years. Based on 8 transactions recorded since 2014. There are 5 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. 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. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and first-time buyers. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 47 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.
