Boroughly > Best areas > Best commuter towns near London
Towns outside London ranked on the combination that decides whether commuting is sustainable: train time, price, and whether the place is somewhere you'd want to spend a weekend. Remember the season ticket - £2,000 to £6,000 a year eats into any price saving.
Ranked from Boroughly's dataset of 278 areas. Prices are median sold prices from HM Land Registry where sourced; scores are indicative composites - see how we source data. Use this to build a shortlist, not to make the final call.
This list weights the criteria one particular way. Yours will be different - a 40-minute cap on the school run, a must-have mosque, a hard budget ceiling. The map lets you set those and re-rank all 278 areas against them.
