Roe Green

Roe Green sits within Hatfield, surrounded by neighbourhoods that share strong transport links, good schools and easing crime rates. Hatfield East and Welham Green both have their own railway stations with direct London connections, while the whole area benefits from quick access to the A1(M), making it a solid choice for commuters. Schools are a consistent strength across the board, with Bishop's Hatfield Girls' School, Countess Anne Church of England School and Howe Dell Primary all rated Outstanding, giving families plenty of good options close to home. Housing costs vary quite a bit depending on which pocket you look at. Hatfield Central offers the most affordable entry point with flats averaging £218,761, while Hatfield Villages provides detached homes from £690,000, cheaper than most neighbouring areas. Welham Green and Hatfield South gives good value too, with detached houses averaging £769,700 and flats from £196,300, undercutting pricier spots like Brookmans Park or Shenley. Colney Heath sits in the middle of the range, with over 40% of residents working from home, reflecting its quieter, village-style character. Day-to-day living here is well supported, with shops, restaurants, GP surgeries and pharmacies within easy reach across most wards, plus a hospital serving both Hatfield Villages and Welham Green. Air quality scores well throughout, and crime has been falling consistently since 2024, with Hatfield South West and Welham Green standing out as particularly safe and settled. Green space is easy to access too, from Colney Heath's five parks to the parks dotted through Hatfield East. Altogether, Roe Green and its surrounding wards offer a practical mix of affordability, strong schools and good transport, with enough variation in house prices and atmosphere to suit families, commuters and anyone after a quieter, village feel.
