How Life Works Here
Combe Place is located in Elmbridge, near Cobham, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 407 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Anti-social behaviour dominates reports. 127 violent offences were recorded (31% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. The nearest transport stop is 172m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £923,000, with strong growth of 17% over five years. Based on 11 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 2 schools within 2 km. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 43 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
