Things You Should Know
Area safety score 25/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.
Family score 35 and safety 25. School access or quality combined with safety concerns make this challenging for families.
Prices grew 38% over 5 years, but environment scores only 25/100. Growth may not be sustainable without local improvements.
Daily access score 16/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.
How Life Works Here
Regent Road is located in South Ribble, near Leyland, Lancashire. Crime is a significant concern, with 366 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 121 violent offences were recorded (33% of total). This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Haircare (hairdresser, 42m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (King Street) is 145m away. The median property price is £148,000, with strong growth of 38% over five years. Based on 19 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 10 schools within 2 km, 8 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 237m 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 47 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
