Questions people ask
Is Crawley safe?
Police recorded about 106 crimes for every 1,000 residents in the 12 months to August 2026, higher than South East as a whole (68.2). Figures run high in busy centres where few people live, and they can't tell you how one street feels, so visit at different times of day.
How much do homes cost in Crawley?
Homes sold for a typical £4,280 per m² in the year to August 2026, about the same as South East as a whole (£4,390 per m²). At that rate a 70 m² two-bedroom flat would cost roughly £300,000. This is a rough guide, not a valuation.
How many schools are there in Crawley?
There are 25 state primary and 7 state secondary schools inside Crawley's boundary. Living nearby doesn't guarantee a place, so check each school's admissions rules.
Is Crawley a deprived area?
1% of Crawley's 67 neighbourhoods are among the most deprived fifth in England, and 12% among the least deprived fifth, on the official Index of Multiple Deprivation. It combines income, jobs, health, education, crime, housing and living environment.
