Broad Green is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Croydon, part of Greater London, sitting close to Croydon town centre. It covers a largely suburban area of low-rise housing, small parades of shops and local community facilities, and its name reflects an open green that historically sat at the heart of the neighbourhood.
The ward is socially and culturally diverse, with a mix of private homes and council housing and the everyday economies of local traders and services. Good public-transport links into central London and proximity to town-centre regeneration have shaped recent social and economic changes, while community groups and small parks remain important to local life.
