Questions people ask
Is Stoke-on-Trent safe?
Police recorded about 114 crimes for every 1,000 residents in the 12 months to August 2026, higher than West Midlands as a whole (84.7). Figures run high in busy centres where few people live, and they can't tell you how one street feels, so visit at different times of day.
How much do homes cost in Stoke-on-Trent?
Homes sold for a typical £2,030 per m² in the year to August 2026, lower than West Midlands as a whole (£2,960 per m²). At that rate a 70 m² two-bedroom flat would cost roughly £140,000. This is a rough guide, not a valuation.
How many schools are there in Stoke-on-Trent?
There are 70 state primary and 15 state secondary schools inside Stoke-on-Trent's boundary. Living nearby doesn't guarantee a place, so check each school's admissions rules.
