How Life Works Here
Glebe Road is located in Sheffield. Crime is a significant concern, with 565 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports.

Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus and tram stops within reach. The nearest is about 202m away. The median property price is £333,500, with moderate growth of 11% over five years.

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 299m away.
