How Life Works Here
Arundel Gate is located in Sheffield. Crime is a significant concern, with 3399 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 1383 violent offences were recorded (41% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The nearest transport stop is 13m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £5,150,000, with exceptional growth of 532% over five years. Based on 6 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 10 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. 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.
