Roxeth
Harrow, London
PocketsAlexandra Park (Eastcote Lane Cemetery · Roxeth Recreation Ground · Northolt Road · west)Earlsmead (Alexandra Avenue · south-west · south)South Harrow (Eastcote Lane · south)
Roxeth sits in central Harrow around Roxeth Hill and the approach to Harrow on the Hill, with the entire ward inside a conservation area. The listed-building set is down to one — the Grade II Parish Church of St Paul — but the streetscape carries the character of Harrow's Victorian expansion down from the older village on the hill. Public-transport access is good, with Sudbury Hill on the Piccadilly line and South Harrow on the Underground both in reach, and 17 hectares of green space runs across the ward. The food venue count of 112 is strong. The drawbacks are clear. There are no outstanding-rated schools in the ward itself, which is striking given Harrow's wider education reputation, safety scores sit at 51 just at the London median, and pollution scores are middling at 57. Nature scores are modest at 48 and the largest named park, Alexandra Park, runs to only 8.8 hectares.

Roxeth, quick answers
- Is Roxeth safe?
- Roxeth scores 50 for safety, based on street-level recorded crime (police.uk) — mid-table for 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 Roxeth a good place to live?
- Roxeth scores 41 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 property prices & growth (58) and air & quiet (57); 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 Roxeth?
- Good public-transport access: Transport for London rates the typical spot in Roxeth 4 on its 0–8 public-transport access scale, which puts the ward at 45 for connectivity relative to the rest of London.
- Is Roxeth expensive to buy in?
- Relative to the rest of London, Roxeth is mid-priced by London standards: its purchase-affordability score is 13/20, where higher means cheaper per square foot (HM Land Registry sold prices matched to floor areas).
- What are the schools like near Roxeth?
