How Life Works Here
Cambridge Square is located in Reigate and Banstead, near Redhill, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 474 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 330 violent offences were recorded (70% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Royal Earlswood Park) is 71m away. The median property price is £278,000, though prices have fallen 35% over five years. Based on 21 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation. There are 4 schools within 2 km, 4 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. The profile suggests appeal to both young professionals and first-time buyers. Overall, this street scores 48 out of 100 for liveability, slightly below the district average. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
