Questions people ask
Is Havering safe?
Police recorded about 68.8 crimes for every 1,000 residents in the 12 months to August 2026, lower than London as a whole (98.1). 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 Havering?
Homes sold for a typical £5,070 per m² in the year to August 2026, lower than London as a whole (£6,380 per m²). At that rate a 70 m² two-bedroom flat would cost roughly £355,000. This is a rough guide, not a valuation.
How many schools are there in Havering?
There are 59 state primary and 18 state secondary schools inside Havering's boundary. Living nearby doesn't guarantee a place, so check each school's admissions rules.

7% of Havering's 153 neighbourhoods are among the most deprived fifth in England, and 27% among the least deprived fifth, on the official Index of Multiple Deprivation. It combines income, jobs, health, education, crime, housing and living environment.
