A Well-Placed Local Scene

Blaydon offers a strong sense of local life with a high concentration of cafés, restaurants, and venues, alongside excellent transport links and notably affordable housing. Residents will appreciate the neighbourhood’s very high scores for health and environment, particularly its low flood exposure. However, the area’s safety and green space provision are currently lower than average, and access to parks and natural spaces is limited.
