How Life Works Here
Delaval Street is located in Northumberland, near Blyth. Crime is a significant concern, with 497 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 176 violent offences were recorded (35% of total). 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. The closest is Newsham Fruit Stores (greengrocer, 22m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 79m away. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 3 schools within 2 km, 3 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 346m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
