How Life Works Here

Violence and sexual offences dominates reports. 159 violent offences were recorded (39% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street.

The nearest stop (Blackwall Tunnel) is 165m away. The median property price is £351,000. Based on 1 transaction recorded since 2014.

There are 17 schools within 2 km, 17 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 8 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 278m away.
