About Olney
Olney's a market town with real character. You'll find 13 restaurants, plenty of pubs and independent shops, plus schools rated Good to Outstanding — Olney Infant Academy stands out particularly. Crime here runs consistently below the UK average and keeps falling.
House prices for detached and terraced homes do well compared to nearby villages. The dry climate and good air quality work well for the older, characterful properties that define the area.
You'll need a car to get around — public transport is limited in this rural setting. That said, good road links to Milton Keynes and Wellingborough make commuting straightforward. Nearly half of residents now work from home, which helps.
