Windmill Road is located in Spelthorne, near Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 314 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 146 violent offences were recorded (46% of total). 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.

Rented accommodation predominates, with larger households suggesting families. There are 8 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 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. 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. This street may particularly suit property investors. Market indicators suggest an upward trend. Overall, this street scores 41 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
