How Life Works Here
Kingsley Gardens is located in West Northamptonshire, near Northampton. Crime is a significant concern, with 405 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 147 violent offences were recorded (36% 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 Kingsley Store (convenience, 97m). The nearest transport stop is 87m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £207,900. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 14 schools within 2 km, 14 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 433m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. Overall, this street scores 46 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
