Around the national average
This neighbourhood sits in the 6th tenth of England, ranked 17,330 of 32,844. Measured across the surrounding LSOA, so it describes the area rather than this postcode alone.
Reported crime

Schools Nearest is Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School · 5 within 2.0 km 700 m
State and independent schools. Ofsted replaced its single overall grade with a report card of separate area grades in November 2025, so a school shows either those area grades, an earlier overall grade with its year, or the result of an ungraded inspection - a check that the previous grade still holds rather than a new judgement. Independent schools are inspected by the ISI, which publishes no grades, so they show none.
