The noise level from road traffic is recorded at 53 dB Lden, which is above the noise standard, based on 2022 data. The foundation risk indication is medium, partly because the home was built before 1970, and the soil type is sand.

Climate risks are generally low, with pluvial flooding, current flood risk, and heat stress all rated low, though heat stress is expected to rise to medium by 2050.
