About South Chafford
South Chafford is a quiet, residential neighbourhood with strong road links to the A13 and M25, plus a nearby train station for London commuters. House prices are higher than in neighbouring areas, especially for semi-detached and terraced homes — this reflects how popular the neighbourhood is, largely because of its Outstanding-rated secondary school and Good primary schools. You'll find a supermarket and convenience store locally, but for cafés, chemists, and GP services, you'll need to head just outside the neighbourhood into the wider Chafford Hundred area. Crime rates are above the UK average, though they're notably lower than in surrounding neighbourhoods and falling. The weather here is drier and sunnier than much of the UK, and air quality stays excellent throughout the year.
