Merton’s population grew from 199,700 in 2011 to 215,200 in 2021, up 7.8 per cent against 7.7 per cent for London, and it ranked 85th of the 309 local authority areas in England, up five places in a decade. The ONS puts it as the 15th least densely populated of London’s 33 boroughs, which is to say the middle. Nothing is published for Wimbledon on its own at census level. Love Wimbledon, the business improvement district, counts approximately 400 hereditaments liable for its levy, set at 1.30 per cent of rateable value above a £20,000 threshold, and budgets an average of £693,527.05 a year in levy income across its next term. Wimbledon BookFest runs from 15 to 25 October 2026.

That mix matters commercially, and the registered offices are worth a look. The All England Lawn Tennis Club (Championships) Limited is registered at Church Road, SW19 5AE, and Church Road is not one of the streets in the BID area listed on Love Wimbledon’s own site; the town centre is The Broadway, Wimbledon Hill Road and the streets around the station. The club’s site dates the 2027 Championships to 28 June to 11 July 2027. Love Wimbledon Limited itself, incorporated on 25 October 2011, is registered care of its solicitors at Mansel Court, SW19 4AA, and works from Tuition House on St George’s Road. The CIPD, incorporated by Royal Charter, gives its head office as 151 The Broadway, SW19 1JQ. AFC Wimbledon Limited is registered at Plough Lane Stadium, SW17 0NR.

Three corrections worth having straight. Merton adopted its new Local Plan on 20 November 2024, replacing the Core Planning Strategy of 2011 and the Sites and Policies Plan of 2014, yet the council’s older Local Plan page still said “We are creating a New Local Plan” when we read it on 23 September 2026, and misdates the old strategy to 2021. Centre Court shopping centre stopped being Centre Court in November 2023, when owner Romulus rebranded it Wimbledon Quarter after a redevelopment into roughly 315,000 sq ft of mixed use; Romulus’s own page still says two of its sites “are expected early 2024”. And the All England Club’s expansion onto the former Wimbledon Park golf course got planning permission from the Deputy Mayor in November 2024 and survived a judicial review that the High Court dismissed on 21 July 2025; a separate High Court ruling after a hearing in January 2026 found the land has never been held under a statutory trust; but the Court of Appeal gave the objectors permission to appeal the first ruling in November 2025, and when we read the club’s page on 23 September 2026 no hearing date had been set. The windmill on the Common is Grade II* as “The Old Windmill”, built 1817 to 1818. Love Wimbledon goes to its levy payers for a 2027 to 2032 term in a postal ballot from 9 October to 5 November 2026. We measure that in enquiries, not rankings screenshots.
