Hounslow is no plane Jane, with major investment it's really taking off.
Living in Hounslow
West of Richmond upon Thames and right under the flight path into Heathrow, Hounslow is inexorably linked to the comings and goings at London's biggest airport.
With the opening of Terminal Five, the new home for all BA operations, Hounslow has had a further employment boost. Buyers outnumber sellers by three to one in Hounslow and the competition for homes has helped to stoke up prices.
The location, good transport links and affordable homes are what make Hounslow attractive to homebuyers. The area is popular with first-time buyers who work in the centre of London. The area is also popular with investors because of its proximity to West Thames College and Heathrow.
Hounslow is benefiting from major investment, with a development that has been designed to be a whole new heart for Hounslow, with additional plans for shopping and a piazza.
People who live close to busy roads, train tracks and airports always say they grow used to the noise. This appears to be the case for Hounslow residents, who seem oblivious to the low-flying planes.
Transport
The M4 and A4 run right through the Borough of Hounslow. With Heathrow and the M25 nearby, it couldn't be better placed for easy access into the city, to visit the countryside or travel abroad.
By tube, the Piccadilly Line is accessible from Hounslow Central, or there are a multitude of bus routes including 111, 281, 203, 117, 120, 237 and H28 to name but a few.
Heathrow Airport is less than 15 minutes away.

History and culture
Hounslow began to develop in the early 13th century along both sides of the Great Western Road from London to the West Country. The area thrived because it was close to Windsor, Hampton Court and London; in the early 20th century prosperity came when factories started to line up along what became known as The Golden Mile.
Hounslow today retains its industrial feel but the money appears to have gone elsewhere. At its centre there is a pedestrianised high street that spills out of the Treaty Centre, a chunky red brick shopping mall that could pass for a high-rise car park.
