WOZ and address data

The noise levels from road, rail, and air traffic are all below the relevant standards, with road traffic at 45 dB Lden, rail at 40 dB Lden, and air traffic at 43 dB Lden. The foundation risk indication is medium, which is common for buildings constructed before 1970, and indeed 100% of properties in this postcode area were built before that year. For climate risks, pluvial flooding at heavy rain is elevated, as is the current flood risk, while the flood risk for 2050 is medium. Heat stress is currently medium and is expected to remain medium by 2050.
