Continuing the theme of interesting local data, take a look at this list of the top 5 roads where people move most often in Harpenden. It's quite revealing to see that on these roads people tend to make a quick stop before moving on, and very few residents remain for long periods.
The prices are the average current values at the time of writing and sourcing the data, and the last column are the number of Sales that have taken place on that road since 1995 according to Land Registry data.
Clearly, some of the roads mentioned here are rather long and some are main or arterial routes into the town and so it's hardly surprising that people will move fairly often, but still the figures are interesting.
On Station Road for example, there have been just under 19 house sales every year, on average, since 1995. That's over £8million worth of housing stock (at todays valuation prices, of course) and well over £80,000 in Harpenden estate agents fees - not forgetting the VAT on those, as well as the stamp duty. You'll be pleased to know that those fees average out to £211 per house sale (unfair comparison I know, inflation and all that, but still - fun numbers to play with!)
Without further ado - please see below the TOP 5 high turnover roads in Harpenden.
