How Life Works Here
Herndon Close is located in Runnymede, near Egham, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 500 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Shoplifting dominates reports. This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transit area 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 Rodi and Judi (hairdresser, 59m). Transport connections are strong, with rail and bus links nearby. The nearest stop (High Street) is 186m away. The median property price is £318,000. Based on 10 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 1 schools within 2 km. Primary schools are nearby, though secondary options may require travel. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The area sits within Flood Zone 2 (river flooding), indicating medium flood risk. It is worth checking the Environment Agency flood map for current details. The data suggests this area could appeal to young professionals. Overall, this street scores 42 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
