Belmont
Harrow, London
PocketsBelmont (Kenton Lane · Weston Drive · Whitchurch Playing Fields · west)
Belmont sits between Kenton and Stanmore in northern Harrow, entirely within a conservation area and built out mostly in the inter-war period. The character is low-density semi-detached with wide verges, organised around Belmont Circle. The Grade II Church of St Anselm is the sole listed building. Whitchurch Playing Fields gives the main recreation ground, though total green cover is thin at under four hectares. Safety readings are well above the London average and air quality is good. The drawbacks are material: public transport is weak, with no tube in the ward and buses to Kingsbury and Stanmore the only real route out; only four outstanding schools lie within reach; heritage texture is very thin with only one listed building; and cultural and food provision is sparse, with thirteen food and seven non-food venues — the lowest pair in the batch.

Belmont, quick answers
- Is Belmont safe?
- Belmont scores 68 for safety, based on street-level recorded crime (police.uk) — safer than most of London. The score weighs personal safety, property crime and anti-social behaviour separately rather than ranking on one raw total, so the mix of crime matters as well as the volume.
- Is Belmont a good place to live?
- Belmont scores 40 overall when all nine data layers are weighted equally. The London comparison beside the score shows how that number ranks against every ward. Its strongest suits are safety (68) and air & quiet (68); its weakest is area development (0). Whether it suits you depends on what you weight — the same data re-ranked around your own priorities can read very differently.
- How well connected is Belmont?
- Limited public-transport access: Transport for London rates the typical spot in Belmont 2 on its 0–8 public-transport access scale, which puts the ward at 25 for connectivity relative to the rest of London.
- Is Belmont expensive to buy in?
- Relative to the rest of London, Belmont is mid-priced by London standards: its purchase-affordability score is 9/20, where higher means cheaper per square foot (HM Land Registry sold prices matched to floor areas).
- What are the schools like near Belmont?
- Belmont scores 50 for education, based on Ofsted ratings and walking distance to the nearest rated primary and secondary schools. 2 schools within a kilometre hold an Outstanding rating.
