Area safety score 25/100 — crime rates in this area (LSOA, not this specific street) are well above average. Exercise caution, especially at night.

How Life Works Here
Brinkworth Terrace is located in York. Crime is a significant concern, with 670 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is Café Moto (cafe, 74m). The nearest transport stop is 72m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £170,000, with strong growth of 24% over five years. Based on 51 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 9 schools within 2 km, 9 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 356m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Some market indicators point to a cooling trend. 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.
