Commonwood is a small residential neighbourhood in the district of Three Rivers, Hertfordshire, England. Lying on the rural–urban fringe it retains pockets of woodland and green space that reflect its name, and is closely linked to nearby centres such as Rickmansworth and Croxley Green; Watford and central London are within easy commuting distance.
Housing is mainly post‑war and late‑20th century, giving the area a suburban feel with local shops, schools and community groups, while the surrounding Green Belt and the nearby Chilterns provide opportunities for walking and countryside recreation. Historically the neighbourhood expanded as transport links improved, and today Commonwood is popular with families and commuters seeking a village atmosphere with quick access to urban amenities.
