How these comparisons were made

Sale medians come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data for England and Wales. Suggestion reasons use the available sale medians, Ofcom January 2026 residential broadband availability, calculated as an unweighted mean of postcode percentages and undated OpenStreetMap station, supermarket and park locations. Distances to mapped places are also straight lines from approximate sector centres. A suggestion shares several measures with this sector; it is not a suitability score.
