How Life Works Here
Colson Place is located in North East Lincolnshire, near Cleethorpes. Crime is a significant concern, with 593 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 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 117m away. The median property price is £112,000. Based on 5 transactions recorded since 2014. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 11 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 186m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street falls within Flood Zone 3 — a high-risk area for flooding from sea sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. Overall, this street scores 38 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
