Local practical context
Cambridge has rail to London King's Cross (50 min) and connections across East Anglia. The city has strong cycling infrastructure, and many staff cycle to hospital sites on the southern edge of the city.
Housing costs are higher than most East of England cities due to university demand. No high-cost area supplement applies, which is a consideration compared to London-fringe alternatives.
