How Life Works Here
Hunstone Avenue is located in Sheffield. Crime is a significant concern, with 447 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Daily amenities are excellent, with 5 facilities within walking distance, including restaurant (2), convenience (1), and hairdresser (1). The closest is Meadow Head Post Office (post office, 107m). The nearest transport stop is 149m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £245,000, with exceptional growth of 72% over five years. Based on 17 transactions recorded since 2014. There are 7 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 279m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 51 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
