Commute

Coming next

Door-to-door journey times to Waterloo, King's Cross and Canary Wharf are being wired up via TfL Journey Planner. Until then the commute score is a placeholder and not weighted heavily.

A spike-grade report, plainly labelled.

Scores are percentiles within our London cohort — your score is relative to other London areas, not absolute. Schools come from OpenStreetMap for now (we're swapping in DfE GIAS + Ofsted for v1). Crime is from data.police.uk, latest available month.

  • Schools list sourced from OpenStreetMap (spike only). Production must use DfE GIAS + Ofsted CSVs.
  • Commute score is a placeholder. TfL Journey Planner planned for v1.1.
  • Crime data is for 2026-03 (police.uk publishes with ~6 week lag).
