One of the most frequently asked questions about the London Borough of Waltham Forest is: \u201cIs there a forest?\u201d Indeed, there is. The northern part of the borough includes ancient woodland that is now part of Epping Forest<\/a>. Situated on the northern side of the capital, Waltham Forest is one of London\u2019s greenest boroughs, with the forested areas acting as part of the city\u2019s lungs and providing space for recreation and relaxation. It is also a diverse borough in every sense. Waltham Forest\u2019s fascinating story encompasses everything from medieval monarchs<\/a> who held land in the area, to its proud black heritage<\/a>, which has contributed to the diversity of the borough since the sixteenth century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waltham Forest extends from Chingford in\nthe north to Leyton and Leytonstone in the south, with Walthamstow in between and\nis divided by the North Circular Road. From the leafy north to the lively urban\nsouth of Waltham Forest, there\u2019s plenty of choice when it comes to architecture\nand ambiance, though house prices vary. It\u2019s growing in popularity, too. In\nChingford, house prices averaged around \u00a3510,000 over the past 12 months. In\nWalthamstow, with its central location in the borough offering the best of both\nnorth and south, house prices average around \u00a3547,000, with the majority being\nterraced houses selling for \u00a3600,000+. In the more affordable Leyton and\nLeytonstone, flats average around \u00a3385,000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, which of these diverse\nneighbourhoods appeals the most? Read on to find out more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transport links<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From Chingford in the north to Leytonstone in the south, Waltham Forest is well-provided with both Tube and overground stations. Chingford Station<\/a> is on the Lea Valley Commuter line with direct links to London Liverpool Street. Walthamstow Central<\/a> is a hub for both the London Underground and National Rail and is the Victoria Line terminus. Leytonstone High Road<\/a> is a train station only, but nearby Leytonstone Underground Station is worth a visit if only to see its Alfred Hitchcock Mosaics<\/a>. The celebrated thrills \u2018n chills director was born in the borough. Waltham Forest\u2019s nearest international airports are London Heathrow Airport (32.6 km), London Stansted (39 km) and London Luton (41.0 km). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schools<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Waltham Forest has forty-four schools\nmaintained by the local education authority. This figure includes three nursery\nschools, twenty-nine infants, juniors and primary schools, seven secondary\nschools, and four special schools. There is also one all-through school, Buxton School<\/a>,\nwhich offers local children aged 3 to 16 an all-round education.  In addition, there are thirty-three\nacademies, twenty-two of which are infants, juniors and primary schools, seven\nare secondary, and one is an all-through school, as well as three special\nschools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impressively, 100 per cent of secondary\nschools in Waltham Forest have a good or outstanding rating, as do 90 per cent\nof primary schools. 81 per cent of students are also placed in their first\nchoice of school. More information about Waltham Forest\u2019s schools is provided\nin this comprehensive overview of education<\/a> in the borough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leisure and amenities<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Waltham Forest is definitely a sporty borough and a great place for those who love the great outdoors, with horse riding<\/a> and  mountain biking<\/a> opportunities in the forest. The borough authorities positively encourage people to get outdoors and walk or cycle<\/a>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as the lovely ancient woodland along\nthe northern edge of the borough, Waltham Forest is well provided with parks\nand similar amenities. Take a trip to the Walthamstow Wetlands<\/a> and see the Coppermill Tower<\/a>.\nIn 2012, Waltham Forest was one of four London boroughs contributing to the site\nof the impressive Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park<\/a>. Just as important as the London\nOlympic Games themselves is the legacy of 2012, which includes a range of\nsporting facilities including the London\nAquatics Centre<\/a>, Lee Valley VeloPark<\/a>, Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre<\/a>, and more. In future, the park will be\nhome to more than one university campus, including the London College of Fashion.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And there\u2019s much more to enjoy in\nWaltham Forest. When the borough was named London\u2019s Borough of Culture in 2019,\nthe press noted that the quality of the local food<\/a> was more than a match for the \u201carea\u2019s\ncultural flare\u201d. You can sample it at home, too, thanks to the borough\u2019s amazing local markets.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s on? <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The really great thing about Waltham Forest is that it\u2019s much more like an interconnected group of villages, each with its own atmosphere and culture, than a London borough. No-one does summer outdoors quite like Waltham Forest. Celebrations such as the Chingford Village Festival<\/a>, Waltham Forest Parks Festival<\/a> and Walthamstow Garden Party<\/a> reflect the borough\u2019s upbeat approach to life. If you love uplifting community events, you\u2019ll feel right at home in Waltham Forest. As well as the numerous festivals, sporting, and music events, the borough also hosts the influential E17 Art Trail<\/a>. Many of the events grow spontaneously from local individuals and groups, so there\u2019s always a freshness and vibrancy about them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety & Crime<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In March 2021, Walthamstow was named as one of the best places to live<\/a> in London by the Sunday Times and the crime rate in the wider borough is generally lower than that of most other London boroughs. Like many local councils, Waltham Forest Council is funding and supporting advanced initiatives to tackle crime. <\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
