Shoplifting dominates reports. 156 violent offences were recorded (31% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street.

The nearest stop (Red Cross) is 187m away. The median property price is £660,000, though prices have fallen 22% over five years. Based on 23 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 5 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding.
