About Vicarage
Vicarage has relatively affordable semis and flats, plus a hospital right nearby and two Outstanding-rated grammar schools within easy reach. The cycling infrastructure here is genuinely strong, and whilst trains and the tube are just outside the neighbourhood boundary, a primary road and good parking make driving straightforward. Living costs run slightly above average, mainly because of council tax and transport, but air quality is excellent at 92 out of 100. Crime rates have historically been above the national average, though 2026 figures show a welcome drop across most categories, which adds to an improving picture for buyers.
