Cuil doesn't give up much at a glance, and in truth it doesn't give up much at all here — no crime figures, no house prices, no school records have surfaced for this particular corner of Scotland, which is itself worth knowing before you go further. What follows is honest rather than thin for its own sake: there simply isn't a working set of local numbers to triangulate against the national picture.
What we can say is where it sits geographically — a locality rather than a town or suburb, which usually means a smaller, quieter footprint than the Scotland-wide average of just over 2,000 people per square kilometre. Places described as localities tend to read as villages or hamlets rather than anywhere with a high street of its own, and that shapes expectations more than any statistic could: you're likely looking at a settlement defined by its surroundings rather than its amenities.
Beyond that, I'd be inventing detail I don't have — on commuting, schools, housing type, or day-to-day life — and that's not a service to you. If you're weighing up Cuil specifically, the sensible next step is a postcode-level search, which tends to surface the school, station and price data that a locality-wide look like this one simply doesn't carry.
