Earlsfield — is it a good place to live?

Earlsfield offers walkable green space most comparable areas can't match — the trade-off is schools, where most local state schools await a current inspection — the score can only count rated ones.

Overall: mid-table for London on the six things we score

How Earlsfield scores

Quiet streets

Schools

Every band is relative to other London areas — a high band means quieter or greener than most of London, not quiet or green in absolute terms. How we score.

Trade-offs

Further trade-offs: the independent scene, which sits just below the London norm; and village feel, which this area does not score as having. No roadside traffic count sits close enough to the centre of Earlsfield for a measured quiet-streets score, so that criterion is shown as no local data rather than guessed.

The nearest station is Earlsfield (National Rail), a short walk from the area's centre.

Who Earlsfield suits

✓ Walkable green space matters
✗ Worth checking directly if state schools matter to you — most nearby schools await a current Ofsted rating
✗ Less ideal if an independent high street is your first filter — though the gap to the rest of the city is slight here
