Epsom in numbers

81% of Epsom’s CQC-rated care homes are rated Good or Outstanding, in line with the England average of 79%. Based on 21 rated homes; England figure from CQC State of Care (2024/25).

The average residential care home in Epsom costs about £1,648/week, while Surrey’s published usual rate is around £952/week (2025). If the council funds care, expect a likely top-up of about £696/week (about £36,192/year), usually paid by a relative or friend.

How we grade areas

Grades are relative, comparing this area against others of the same type across the UK. Amenity grades are based on OpenStreetMap counts within a fixed radius. The Safety & Peace grade ranks recorded anti-social behaviour and public-disorder incidents (the offences most relevant to a quiet neighbourhood) — per head of population where ONS figures are available, otherwise by count. Scottish towns are graded against other Scottish towns, from Police Scotland’s 12-month figures for the council wards they sit in, per head of those wards’ population (National Records of Scotland). Figures are estimates to aid research, not a substitute for visiting an area.

Is Epsom a good retirement location?

Read our guide to living in Epsom

Epsom suits families seeking a quiet suburban setting with decent everyday services and green space, but the care-home market here is small. The two listed homes both hold CQC ratings of good, and the town's slightly above-average older population (19.2% aged 65+, against a national average of 18.6%) signals some retirement infrastructure. However, if you want variety in home choice or prefer to stay local, you may need to look further afield or plan early.

Health & support

  • Medical access: Epsom has several GP surgeries and pharmacies; it is within reach of major South East hospitals, though you should confirm your nearest emergency department when choosing a home.
  • Safety: Recorded crime stood at 335 offences in April 2026, with violent crime, anti-social behaviour and public order as the most common categories — moderately higher than many quieter suburban areas.
  • Family & connection: Consider how far your family live from Epsom, as travel distance will shape how often they can visit and support you day-to-day.

Finances & daily life

  • Cost of care: Local weekly fees in the two listed homes range broadly across the care-home market; you should request current rates directly, as they vary widely by room type and services.
  • Transport: Epsom is well served by buses and has rail links to nearby cities including London, making it accessible for family visits and trips out. The town centre is reasonably walkable, though you may depend on transport for some journeys.
  • Housing options: Only 2 care homes are listed locally, with bed counts ranging from 56 to 95. Limited choice means early inquiry and planning are important if you wish to stay in Epsom itself.

Lifestyle & environment

  • Green space & hobbies: The town offers 20 parks and 6 allotments, providing good outdoor space for walks and gardening. You will find 54 restaurants and cafes and 19 pubs and bars for social outings.
  • Community: Epsom has a decent spread of social and eating venues, though you should ask prospective care homes directly about on-site clubs, memory cafés and local community groups they link into.
  • Climate: As a South East town, Epsom has a temperate UK climate with milder winters and warmer summers than northern regions, though rainfall is fairly typical for England.

Things to weigh up

  • Limited care-home choice: Only 2 homes are listed locally, so options for moving between them or finding a specific type of care are restricted; plan well in advance and be ready to explore nearby towns if needed.
  • Crime rate: Recorded crime is moderately elevated, with violent crime and anti-social behaviour among the top offences; check specific postcodes and ask homes about their local safety measures.
