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.
Daily access score 16/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.
Only 1 transaction recorded. The £240,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
How Life Works Here
Blackett Street is located in South Tyneside, near Jarrow. Crime is a significant concern, with 495 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 167 violent offences were recorded (34% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is The White Lead (pub, 59m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Blackett Street) is 64m away. The median property price is £240,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014. Social housing makes up a significant share of properties. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 6 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. Overall, this street scores 44 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
