About

St James's Park is a residential neighbourhood situated directly southeast of Exeter city centre. It is primarily composed of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, with a mix of converted flats and smaller apartment buildings. The area includes the namesake park itself, a modest green space with mature trees and walking paths. Several local businesses, convenience stores, and pubs are found along its main roads, serving the local community.

Adjacent to the east is the larger Hoopern area, home to a significant portion of the University of Exeter's Streatham Campus. This gives the locality a notable student population, especially in shared housing. The grounds contain the university's athletic fields and the Hoopern Valley, a stretch of wooded parkland and ponds following a stream. This green corridor provides a distinct, semi-rural walking route from the campus toward the city.
