How Life Works Here
Castle Walk is located in Reigate and Banstead, near Reigate, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 498 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. 156 violent offences were recorded (31% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street. This is a quieter, more car-dependent location. The nearest shops and services may require a short drive. The closest is DASH (hairdresser, 141m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (Morrisons) is 186m away. The median property price is £300,000, with moderate growth of 15% over five years. Based on 5 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 5 schools within 2 km, 5 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. The nearest school is just 348m away. However, high local crime rates are a serious concern for families with children, regardless of school proximity. This street may particularly suit property investors. Overall, this street scores 52 out of 100 for liveability. Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
