KT9 1QU is a safe, established residential area on Holmwood Road, 0.5km from Hook in Kingston upon Thames. Administratively it sits within Hook & Chessington North ward and the Kingston and Surbiton constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, KT9 1QU is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. By day, the area transitions to a self-employed tradespeople in multicultural metro suburbs character: ethnically mixed self-employed with no fixed place of work in construction, transport, and storage. An average age of 40 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 37% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 25 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: Average house prices are around £353k, up 20.0% year-on-year.
