How we grade areas
Grades are relative, comparing this area against others of the same type across the UK. Amenity grades are based on OpenStreetMap counts within a fixed radius. The Safety & Peace grade ranks recorded anti-social behaviour and public-disorder incidents (the offences most relevant to a quiet neighbourhood) — per head of population where ONS figures are available, otherwise by count. Scottish towns are graded against other Scottish towns, from Police Scotland’s 12-month figures for the council wards they sit in, per head of those wards’ population (National Records of Scotland). Figures are estimates to aid research, not a substitute for visiting an area.

Is Solihull a good retirement location?
Read our guide to living in Solihull
Solihull suits families seeking established, well-regulated care provision in a stable suburban setting. The town punches above the national average for its retired population, suggesting good community infrastructure for older people. It is neither a specialist retirement destination nor especially cheap, but offers reliable, quality-assured homes in a town with sufficient social and practical amenities. Families should weigh distance to their own support network against the town's sound local provision and safety profile.
Health & support
- Medical access: GP surgeries and pharmacies are distributed across the town; Solihull Hospital is nearby for urgent and planned care within the local NHS network.
- Safety: 237 recorded offences in April 2026 (latest data), with violent crime, shoplifting and anti-social behaviour the most common. This is broadly in line with suburban West Midlands towns and merits consideration against national figures.
- Family & connection: Solihull's position in the West Midlands conurbation means easy road and rail links to Birmingham and beyond. Consider how far your own network is, and whether frequent visits are realistic.
Finances & daily life
- Cost of care: Weekly care-home fees in Solihull align broadly with the West Midlands regional average and the national median. No exceptional premium, but not significantly cheaper either.
- Transport: Buses serve the town regularly; rail links connect to Birmingham and regional destinations. Town centre and many amenities are walkable; a car is helpful but not essential for most residents.
- Housing options: 10 care homes are listed locally, ranging from 50 to 109 beds, offering a moderate choice of size and setting. All are rated Good by the CQC.
Lifestyle & environment
- Green space & hobbies: 12 parks and 1 allotment provide outdoor space; 42 restaurants and cafes, and 18 pubs and bars, offer social dining and meeting points. These suggest reasonable scope for hobby groups and regular social outings.
- Community: A town with 22.2% residents aged 65 or over has well-embedded community groups and social networks. Ask prospective care homes about local memory cafés, lunch clubs and volunteer transport.
- Climate: The West Midlands experiences a typical British climate: cool winters and mild summers, with regular rainfall. Ensure care plans account for seasonal heating and mobility support.
Things to weigh up
- Moderate choice of homes: Ten care homes is a reasonable range, but smaller than in major retirement hubs. Visit several and compare closely before committing.
- Violent crime recorded: The most common crime type in the latest data is violence. Review the full crime pattern locally and ask care homes about security, staffing and support for residents who feel anxious.
- Above-average retired population: While this reflects strong local services for older people, Solihull is not a coastal or rural retreat. If you seek a quieter, less urban setting, explore surrounding villages or other regions.
