There is so much to consider when anyone moves; community feel, schools, shops, location, the children, their friends, your friends, job prospects for you and your children, the list is endless. There are so many reasons for moving aside from the need for a different type of property; better neighbours, job relocation, retirement, taking it easy and so on.

Its infrastructure and population has grown in sync with the growth of Gatwick Airport, the world most busiest single runway. Plans to add a second runway is well underway which will a catalyst in the property, population and employment markets.
Crawley has a pleasant landscape with plenty of scope for outdoor activities be it lakes, walks, cycling, sailing, canoeing. The county of Sussex within which Crawley lies is a fabulous county with numerous places of interest and more importantly incredibly easily accessible by all.
A family town with a reasonable amount going on in the community from school fetes, village fairs, car boot sales to antique fairs.
The ability to effortlessly slip out of the town and disappear in an instant into the Sussex countryside, seaside and/or explore the villages and then glide back in with a similar effort amplifies the community feel Crawley enjoys.
