What is the name of the street where Harry lives with the Dursleys?

What is the name of the street where Harry lives with the Dursleys? Harry lives on Privet Drive, specifically at Number 4, Privet Drive. The address is in Little Whinging, a fictional town in Surrey, south-west of London.

Harry is sent to live with his aunt Petunia Dursley after his parents are killed. Petunia is Lily Potter's sister, and Albus Dumbledore explains that Lily's sacrificial protection keeps Harry safe while he lives with his mother's blood relative. That protection is the main reason Harry must return to Privet Drive each summer.

The Dursley home is deliberately ordinary: Vernon, Petunia, and their son Dudley value conformity and dislike anything connected with magic. Harry's cupboard under the stairs is his first sleeping place, although he later receives the small bedroom at the top of the house.

Privet Drive is often confused with other Harry Potter locations, such as Godric's Hollow, where Harry's parents lived, or Number 12, Grimmauld Place, the Black family home. In the films, the exterior of the Dursley house was represented by 12 Picket Post Close in Bracknell.
