Overview of Blaby

Leicester Forest East

The Leicester Forest East neighbourhood beat covers a densely populated Leicester suburb made up of both urban and rural housing as it stretches west from the city along the busy A47 towards Kirby Muxloe. The M1 motorway dissects the district and adds the bustling motorway service areas, both north and south, to the policing responsibilities of the neighbourhood team.

The neighbourhood consists a mix of private housing and rented accommodation with a small number of council owned dwellings. Local amenities are spread throughout the area and include doctors, dentists, general stores, off-licences and primary schools.

The A47 is a busy route that runs between Hinckley, the City of Leicester and eastern parts of the County. It also provides the main means of residents entering and exiting the neighbourhood.
