How Life Works Here

Adelaide Road is located in Test Valley, near Andover, Hampshire. Crime is a significant concern, with 517 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 273 violent offences were recorded (53% 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 Lardi Cake (pub, 16m). Public transport is accessible, with rail and bus stops within reach. The nearest is about 118m away. The median property price is £195,000. Based on 14 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, with smaller households typical of singles or couples. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 8 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. Overall, this street scores 43 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
