About Alexandra

Getting around is straightforward. Buses run through the neighbourhood, rail stations are just outside, and the roads are well connected. Nearly 30% of residents work from home, and plenty of people walk or cycle to work.
Property prices are reasonable for the area. Flats average £149,000 and terraces £256,000, so it's one of the more affordable neighbourhoods if you're looking for a house rather than a flat.
St Mary's Catholic Primary has an Outstanding Ofsted rating, and the University of Suffolk is nearby. Your living costs come in below the UK average for utilities, council tax and transport. You'll also benefit from Suffolk's drier, sunnier climate and strong air quality.
Crime figures are dropping year on year, which reflects the busy town centre setting that keeps the neighbourhood active and well-used.
