Area safety score 25/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.
Only 2 transactions recorded. The £85,500 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
How Life Works Here
Manor House Crescent is located in Preston, Lancashire. Crime is a significant concern, with 620 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 215 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 nearest transport stop is 182m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £85,500. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 12 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 62m 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 44 out of 100 for liveability. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
