Gas and electricity use
Homes with gas used 13,274 kWh of it on average in 2024, 34% more than the district's 9,919 kWh, and 2,633 kWh of electricity, about the same as the district. There are gas meters for about 83% of the homes.

| CA2 5QR | 20 | 2,427 kWh | 20 | 11,629 kWh |
These are all the homes on each postcode, whatever their size and however many live in them, so they show the kind of homes and heating here rather than what any one home uses. The typical figure is the median: half the homes used less. The district is CA2.

Roadworks
No street works under way, planned or finished in the last three months on this street, in permits up to 31 October 2026.
Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 7 addresses are in areas at high risk, 2 at medium risk and 20 at low risk. Each address counts once, at the higher of its rivers-and-sea and surface-water risk.
Rivers and the sea alone: of the 17 homes the Environment Agency counts, 4 are in areas at high risk, 0 medium, 13 low and 0 very low.
High: 3.3% (1 in 30) or more chance of flooding a year. Medium: 1% to 3.3%. Low: 0.1% to 1%. Very low: under 0.1%. The rivers and sea figures allow for flood defences. Counts cover whole postcodes, which can include other streets.
Flood zone for planning: at least one postcode centre is in flood zone 3. Zone 3 is a 1% (1 in 100) or greater annual chance of flooding from rivers, or 0.5% from the sea, ignoring defences.

Recorded floods
3 recorded floods covered 2 of the centres of this street's postcodes, most recently in December 2015 (Carlisle, including Crosby-on-Eden; main river).
| When | Flood | Source and cause | Postcodes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 Dec 2015 | Carlisle, including Crosby-on-Eden | Main river; overtopping of defences | CA2 5TY |
| 7 Jan 2005 | Carlisle | Main river; overtopping of defences | CA2 5TY, CA2 5XH |
| 11 Mar 1984 | Willowholme | Main river | CA2 5XH |
Recorded floods are where floodwater was seen or surveyed after a flood. Many floods were never mapped, an outline over a postcode's centre does not mean every home in it flooded, and homes outside one may have. Ask the seller whether the home itself has flooded.
Coastal erosion
No projected coastal erosion zone is within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Storm overflows
7 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 67 times, for 70 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into Dow Beck Culvert, River Caldew, Parham Beck.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Finn Avenue Combined Sewer Overflow United Utilities | Dow Beck Culvert | 7 | 10 | 170 m |
| Crown Street (Town Dyke Orchard United Utilities | River Caldew | 28 | 29 | 230 m |
| Lime Street Network Pumping Station United Utilities | River Caldew | 1 | 1 | 450 m (0.3 miles) |
| Rickerby Cso United Utilities | River Caldew | 4 | 2 | 620 m (0.4 miles) |
| B&Amp;Q Cso (101C4) United Utilities | River Caldew | 8 | 5 | 620 m (0.4 miles) |
| Stonegarth Combined Sewer Overflow United Utilities | Dow Beck Culvert | 0 | 0 | 750 m (0.5 miles) |
| Infirmary Street Carlisle Cso United Utilities | Parham Beck | 19 | 24 | 930 m (0.6 miles) |
A storm overflow lets sewage diluted with rainwater into a river, stream or the sea when heavy rain overwhelms the sewers, so the spills here affect the water they run into, not homes. A spill is counted the regulators' way: a first 12 hours, then each 24 hours it goes on.
Coal mining
No postcode centre on the street is in a coalfield: the Mining Remediation Authority records no coal mining risk here.
Radon
Every 1 km square the street's postcodes are in is in the lowest band of radon potential: fewer than 1 home in 100 is estimated to be at or above the Action Level. It is not a radon Affected Area.
Historic landfill
No historic landfill site is within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Height above sea level
The street's 69 addresses are between 15 m and 24 m above sea level (17 m on average); the ground rises about 9 m from the lowest to the highest.

Exam results are from the Department for Education's school performance tables (Explore Education Statistics, Open Government Licence), for all pupils at each school. The middle school in England had 63% at the expected standard at the end of primary school (2025), Attainment 8 of 46.0 at GCSE (2026) and an A level average of C+ (2025). Attainment 8 adds up a pupil's grades in eight GCSEs, with English and maths counted twice (90 is the most), averaged over the school's pupils. Progress 8 compares pupils with others who had the same results at the end of primary school; it is not published for GCSEs in 2025 and 2026, as those pupils sat no primary tests during the pandemic. Small year groups swing from year to year, and figures for very small ones are withheld.

What this page cannot tell you
- Whether a particular house is at risk of flooding, subsiding or anything else: the flood map is a model of areas and there is no property-level data here.
- What a home is worth now: sales are historic prices for the homes that happened to sell.
- How safe the street is: crime points are moved to anonymised locations and many crimes are never reported; road collisions count only those in which someone was hurt and the police were told.
- Whether you would get a place at a school: distances are straight lines, not catchments.
- Who lives on the street now: census figures describe the small areas around it in March 2021, during a lockdown.
- How long a journey takes or how often anything runs: transport distances are straight lines to the nearest stops.
- Whether a GP practice is taking new patients, or a dentist new NHS patients.
- How loud a home is inside, or noise from industry, neighbours or smaller airfields: noise figures are models of road, rail and air traffic outside.
How each figure on this page is matched to the street and worked out: methodology.
