How Life Works Here
Regent Circus is located in Swindon. Crime is a significant concern, with 1139 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 497 violent offences were recorded (44% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. The closest is Chaat Cafe (restaurant, 17m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Regent Circus) is 129m away. The median property price is £302,500. Based on 4 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 11 schools within 2 km, 10 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 353m 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 first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 48 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
