Charming area very green and leafy no big chains and is very close to a nice park with a great view of the city and a great small church school aswell as a church just opposite. It is also near a library, a post office, a few small newsagents, supermarkets and even a swimming pool. The community is also very nice and supportive and the crime rate is low. However it is getting quite chichi as more and more high end shops are taking over the high street, whether this is a good or bad thing is up to you

Deciphering Crime Rates - a Deep Dive Into UK Postcode Analysis
Ever wondered about the crime rate in your UK postcode? You're not alone. We've dug deep into the data, uncovering trends and patterns that'll make your head spin.
Death of the High Street?
The BBC reports that despite councils' attempts to kurb them, the UK's high streets have seen a huge growth in fast food outlets. Could this mark the death knell for the Great British high street, and what can we do about it to halt its decline?
Discrimination by Postcode
You really couldn't make it up, could you? Some of the country's most vulnerable people are missing out on their weekly £25 Cold Weather Payment, just because the system that's in operation is discriminating against them because payments are based on postcode, rather than geographic location.
The Redesign is Underway
Well, the current website was absolutely in dire need of a good redesign - from the ground up. So I set out to pull it all apart and get it up and running again to become the most comprehensive guide to every postcode in the UK. And it's been a long, tough job from start to finish - and quite possibly the biggest project I've ever undertaken.
SOCIAL GRADES
According to census records, 49% of people here have a social grade of AB (highest), compared to the national average of 27%.
