I would suggest you second determining factor after the location/cost of suitable housing is finding somewhere with walkable access to a (good) GP surgery/medical centre
and,
reliable public transport to the local (full service) hospital.Even with a local pharmacy delivering the mutlipill repeat prescription in prepacked in AM/PM ampoules, I'm surprised by the number of GP visits required by an aged distant neighbour.
(I offer cover for her daughter who still works fulltime).Even here in LBHillingdon, a friend who suffers from COPD, cannot rely upon the local busses to get him to appointments at Hillingdon Hospital on time, (= cost of an Uber, rather than free through Tfl pass).
Also anecdotally. A friend reports that one of his friends always dreamed of living next to the coast. Retired, from London-ish south east to Bude.
Current medical condition requires visits to either Exeter or Bristol.
Only possible with partner driving. -
There has been a collaboration between the Ruislip Woods National Nature Reserve Management Advisory Group and Brunel University for some 2 1/2 years, principally with their Centre for Flood Risk & Resilience.
They have helped us improve the array of natural flood management that we have installed in Park Wood SSSI, to reduce the flood risk for some 80 residential properties between the woodland and the River Pinn.On Wednesday the 11th of December I gratefully accepted an inviation to attend the Brunel Design School Industry Review event where some 60 students presented posters of their final year projects.
Muayed is proposing to design a better bike light, to reduce the risk of cycling.
I'm certain the hive mind here can offer him some suggestions based upon experience,
not just of cycling at night,
but also the demerits of those bike lights already commercially available. -

Will that come out to Staines?

This level of geographic specificity is what I'll miss most when this forum shutters.
