Area safety score 25/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.

How Life Works Here

Pavilion Close is located in Swindon. Crime is a significant concern, with 463 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 175 violent offences were recorded (38% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 159m away. The median property price is £215,000, with strong growth of 21% over five years. Based on 13 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation. There are 10 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 117m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 49 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
