Rented accommodation predominates. There are 6 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 194m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit first-time buyers. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 48 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.
