This sector is a diverse and intesting, the population is no exception to this. Highfield has an unrivaled demographic spread and each contributing factor enhances the cosmopolitan feel. To give some idea and to define the area covered the sector runs from Waitrose on the Broadway up Westwwood Road to the Avenue, head out of the City up to Burgess Road, head right down to the bottom of Burgess Road to McDonalds at the junction of High Road along High Road into Portswood Road all the way back to Waitrose.
Primarily the houseing stock is old with few new developments of any scale.
The demographic makeup lends itself to the prevailing crime pattern, for an example there is a significant number of student dwellings and these are vulnerable to those criminals who commit burglaries.
Over time it has been possible to identify the priorities that communities are concerned about, these have included, speeding, cycling on the pavements, burglaries and Anti Social behaviour, Police seek to tackle these issues.
