Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 140 violent offences were recorded (38% of total). Most everyday needs — supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés — are within a reasonable walk. Public transport options are limited. A car is recommended for commuting and longer journeys. The median property price is £156,500, with exceptional growth of 61% over five years. Based on 28 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, and a notable retired population. There are 3 schools within 2 km, 3 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 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. This street falls within Flood Zone 3 — a high-risk area for flooding from river sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 38 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
