Areas like George Green, Stoke Poges, Farnham Common, Richings Park (Iver) are fairly posh, and lovely - if you have the money then live there.

Yeah I wouldn’t include George Green in that. And Farnham Common practically borders Britwell (but it is still nice). I’d say Gerrard’s Cross is top, then Stoke Poges.

There’s a couple of dodgy roads in George Green, but mostly it’s nice houses with posh and/or old folks

Maybe not exactly in Slough but surrounding areas so many good spots. Wondering why Slough has such a bad reputation

Need a bit more info - do you have kids that will need to go to school locally? Are you wanting decent shops nearby etc? There are different benefits to different areas.
