Things You Should Know

🚨
High Crime Area

🚗
Car-dependent

How Life Works Here

Heritage Court is located in Somerset, near Glastonbury. Crime is a significant concern, with 751 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 301 violent offences were recorded (40% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Daily amenities are excellent, with 11 facilities within walking distance, including cafe (5), clothes (1), and convenience (1). The nearest public transport is 103m away. A car is recommended for most journeys. Properties here change hands infrequently. Rented accommodation predominates, with smaller households typical of singles or couples. There are 3 schools within 2 km, 3 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 89m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and retirees. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability, placing it in the top 8% within its district. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
