Around Houghton Regis.
Houghton Regis sits beside Dunstable and grew as a London overspill town, with estates such as Tithe Farm and Parkside built around an old village green. To the north the large Linmere development is adding a new neighbourhood of first-time buyers and young families. New arrivals need trades, cleaners and childcare quickly and go straight to search. Naming Houghton Regis and Linmere specifically, not just Dunstable or Luton, is how a local business reaches them first.
The nearest towns in the same council area are Dunstable (1 mile), Flitwick (7 miles), Woburn (7 miles) and Ampthill (9 miles). Across the boundary into the next council area, Luton (5 miles), Harpenden (9 miles), Woburn Sands (9 miles) and Tring (10 miles) are also close. If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.
Tithe Farm, Parkside, Linmere, Thorn, Dunstable and Toddington: if you work in particular parts of Houghton Regis, those names belong on the site.
Houghton Regis addresses fall in the LU postcode area, about 154 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
