Neighbourhood Report

NestScope is deepest in England. Ofsted school ratings, flood risk and the IMD-anchored NestScope Score aren't published for Wales, so this report shows only the layers official Wales sources cover.

A neighbourhood of Swansea: a school 0.3 miles away and roughly 6 km² reachable within half an hour by public transport — though there is little in the way of parkland nearby.

What's nearby — across walking, short-drive and school catchment distance. Data from official UK government sources.

04 — Method

How this NestScope Score works.

We map what’s nearby. Schools, safety, healthcare, transport, green space and amenities around SA1 9TW — each measured at its own radius, from a 0.25-mile crime count to a 2-mile school catchment.

We blend in national context. Every local factor is combined with England’s Index of Multiple Deprivation, so a postcode is judged both on what’s actually nearby and on how the wider neighbourhood compares nationally.

One score, six visible factors. Schools, Safety, Healthcare, Transport, Green space and Amenities each get their own 0–100 score; the six combine into the single NestScope Score above. No black box — see the full methodology.
