Census 2021 puts Belmont and Banstead edge at 3,212 households with a median age of 43.8. The inter-war stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 79% houses and 21% flats need different handling in SM2.
Private renting sits at 15% and owner-occupation at 82%; the first group books clearance services at short notice, the second plans it.
