Functional Daily Life, Low-Key Feel

Highwoods offers a strong local economy with a resilient jobs market and convenient access to healthcare services. Residents will appreciate the neighbourhood’s very high flood protection and excellent access to nearby GP practices. However, opportunities for enjoying local leisure and cultural activities are currently limited, and access to parks and green spaces is low.
