How Life Works Here

Waterloo Street is located in Teignbridge, near Teignmouth, Devon. Crime is a significant concern, with 480 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 202 violent offences were recorded (42% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Most everyday needs — supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés — are within a reasonable walk. The closest is Luders Patisserie (cafe, 30m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Post Office) is 42m away. The median property price is £112,000. Based on 3 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, and a notable retired population. There are 1 schools within 2 km. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. 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 and sea sources. Specialist flood insurance and any necessary mitigation should be factored into a purchase decision. This street may particularly suit young professionals. Overall, this street scores 46 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.
