These are neighbourhoods of young well-off commuter families, with many pre-school and primary school children.
These families often live in relatively large detached houses and have a long time left on their mortgage. However they have good incomes, and feel able to afford such long term commitments. These individuals are likely to be in their 30s, and tend to be professionals and managers with company pensions and company health care. They drive to work in company cars.
These families are financially aware. Where possible they will have regular savings plans and invest in stocks and shares. A child savings plan may cater for the children’s future. The high level of remortaging may indicate confidence in their ability to repay high levels of borrowing. They have credit cards with high credit limits, but their spending is not high.
The Internet is a popular channel for financial services, with e-banking fairly common with these households. On-line activity is generally high whether shopping, booking leisure activity, playing games or the children’s education.
These are young active people, taking part in aerobics, playing golf, rugby and going skiing. For entertainment they own a DVD player, subscribe to satellite TV and go to the cinema.

Woo, Google Maps is up to date with satellite photos of the UK now, you can zoom right in... this update has caused a slight problem with my own interactive map, something's stopping it initialising properly, but once the map's redrawn (just pick a new area / feature that you are looking for in a pub) and it's all cushty... maybe it'll all be working by the time you read this, I'm going back to the discussion group to find out how to fix it...
Any exciting news from our commute in today? Um, no. The other day a lady stormed out of the carriage saying "I can't tolerate this!", not sure what it was about though, possibly the guy next to her tapping away on his laptop.
Big news from Folkestone for the day is that we now have recycling collections! Don't think we will actually do any more recycling, as we take all ours to the recycling point at Safeway anyway, but now it means we don't need to carry our weekly ration of 48 empty Becks bottles quite so far... It does mean the council will only be emptying the regular bins every two weeks instead of every week, so I hope everyone else in the building plays along...
