How Life Works Here
Lion Court is located in Woking, Surrey. Crime is a significant concern, with 325 incidents recorded in 12 months — well above the national average. Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 153 violent offences were recorded (47% of total). This is a quieter, more car-dependent location.

The median property price is £240,000, with moderate growth of 2% over five years. Based on 7 transactions recorded since 2014. The local area has a moderate population, with a high proportion of rented accommodation, with larger households suggesting families. There are 3 schools within 2 km, 3 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 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 low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
