Living in EH55, West Lothian

What the open data says about house prices, schools, crime and flood risk around EH55 in West Lothian. Built from the same sources as every property report on this site, not opinion or marketing copy.

Figures gathered 10 October 2026, each from the source named in its section.

Parts of this page do not cover Scotland

House prices below are genuine (the UK House Price Index covers all four nations), but three other sources stop short of Scotland:

  • Flood risk: the Environment Agency maps England only, so this page does not give a flood zone for Scotland. SEPA's flood maps cover it.
  • Crime: Police Scotland does not publish to data.police.uk, which holds only British Transport Police records for Scotland, so this page shows no crime figure rather than one that would look reassuring.
  • Schools: ratings come from Ofsted, which doesn't operate in Scotland, so "no schools found" reflects that gap, not an actual absence of schools nearby.
