Isleworth
Hounslow, London
PocketsIsleworth & Ivybridge (Isleworth Ait · Redlees Park · River Crane · Whitton Brook · Mogden Lane)Syon Green (Redlees Park · St. John's Gardens)
Isleworth sits on the north bank of the Thames in the east of Hounslow, a historic riverside ward built around the old village at Church Street and Syon Park across the water. Heritage is deep for an outer west London ward, with 40 listed buildings including the Grade II* Church of All Saints, the Grade II* London Apprentice public house and the Grade II* Garvin House. About a third of the ward lies within a conservation area, 23 hectares of green space include Redlees Park, and nine outstanding schools sit within reach. The trade-offs are mostly about connectivity: public-transport access is only moderate, relying on Isleworth rail and bus links rather than any Tube; the market score has eased; air quality along the A310 is patchy; and nightlife beyond a handful of riverside pubs is limited.

Isleworth, quick answers
- Is Isleworth safe?
- Isleworth scores 52 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 Isleworth a good place to live?
- Isleworth 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 nature access (71) and property prices & growth (54); its weakest is area development (3). Whether it suits you depends on what you weight — the same data re-ranked around your own priorities can read very differently.

- Is Isleworth expensive to buy in?
- Relative to the rest of London, Isleworth is mid-priced by London standards: its purchase-affordability score is 11/20, where higher means cheaper per square foot (HM Land Registry sold prices matched to floor areas).
