Wimbledon Park — is it a good place to live?

Wimbledon Park offers state schools where pupils progress faster than in most of the capital — the trade-off is culture and leisure, which score toward the bottom of the London range.

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

There is a further trade-off: everyday shops and services within a walk, which are fewer or less varied here. For families weighing the independent route, there is also a private school in or close to the area — shown for context, never scored.

The nearest station is Wimbledon Park (London Underground), a short walk from the area's centre.
