The Trends

Enfield, despite the development that has taken place over the last decade, has retained much of its greenery. The areas within the borough that are peaceful and surrounded by parks are popular with families with young children and people who are retired.

Enfield offers some of the lowest property rentals and purchasing prices in London. This is attractive to many first-time buyers or young couples that are still looking to be well connected to London.

This borough is home to some very disadvantaged communities. However, there has been a focus on regeneration projects, and this has seen the development of leisure complexes and retail outlets.

Sector Spotlight: Industry

Enfield has a specific advantage in its location when it comes to industry. It has great access to airports, the A406 and the M25. In conjunction with this, commercial floor space in the borough is relatively cheap.

These factors have seen the borough become home to a varied industrial sector and a significant business area.

Enfield is also positioned within the London Stansted Cambridge Corridor. This is Britain’s fastest growing region with opportunities in advanced technology and commercial innovation appearing throughout the corridor.

The corridor gives businesses great access to a network of supply chains. Some of the developments that have taken place within the borough to date are the Brimsdown Business Estate, Innova Park and Meridian Business Park.
