In summary

Oakleigh Park is in the less-deprived top third of England, ranked #1,383 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #5 of 42 in Barnet.

Typical homes here sold for about £677,500 over the past year, broadly flat over five years (+2%) (from 104 sales), 18% above the wider Barnet median of £575,500.
