According to Lucian Cook, director of Savills Research:
"The desirability of suburban life and the post war encroachment of suburbia, has resulted in the emergence of the super suburb.”
How do you spot a super suburb? Well, 50% of buyers in a super suburb are "high-ranking executives", 46% employed in City-related jobs. In the top 25 London suburbs, the average property value is £540,000. Space, quality-of-life, better schools... Savills gives a number of reasons for suburbia's popularity in the UK.
