About Shaw
Shaw feels like a proper neighbourhood where everything you need is close by. You've got supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants and pubs within easy reach, plus a swimming pool, cinema and parks all on your doorstep.
The schools are solid. Shaw Ridge and Brook Field are both in the neighbourhood, and Brook Field is getting better all the time. Crime's been dropping steadily and sits well below the UK average now.
Your money goes further here. Living costs run below the national average, and house prices for terraced and detached homes compare well with other neighbourhoods nearby.
If you drive, the road links work well. Nearly 4 in 10 residents work from home, which tells you something about how flexible life can be here. The air quality is excellent too.
It's a settled, practical place to live — the kind of neighbourhood where things just work.
