Stamford Hill offers an independent high street that outscores most of the city — the trade-off is schools, where measured pupil progress trails the citywide pace.
Overall: below the London average on the six things we score
vs the rest of London
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.
Further trade-offs: traffic: its streets measure busier than most of London's, though this varies sharply street to street; culture and leisure, which score toward the bottom of the London range; and everyday shops and services within a walk, which are fewer or less varied here. For families weighing the independent route, there are also several private schools in and around the area — shown for context, never scored.
