How Life Works Here
Jericho Street is located in Sheffield. Crime is a significant concern, with 414 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 179 violent offences were recorded (43% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus and tram links nearby. The nearest stop (St Philips Road/Jericho Street) is 69m away. The median property price is £93,000, with strong growth of 31% over five years. Based on 5 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a significant social housing presence. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 99m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit young professionals. 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.
