Visa requirements are usually decided on nationality, not residence. What's your nationality?

@Airsick visa exemptions sometimes depend on residency, as in this case, so it's not actually necessary to know the traveler's citizenship.

The UK government has an excellent tool(click here) to see if you need a visa. I did a check on a citizenship that usually requires a visa to transit in the UK and will not be leaving the airport.
Exemptions
You don’t need a visa if you have one of the following:
- a visa for Canada, New Zealand, Australia or the USA (this can be used
for travel to any country)
- a residence permit issued by Australia or
New Zealand
a common format residence permit issued by an European
Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland
- a resident permit issued by
Canada after 28 June 2002
- a uniform format category D visa for entry
into a country in the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland
- an
Irish biometric visa (marked ‘BC’ or ‘BC BIVS’ in the ‘Remarks’
section)
- a Schengen Approved Destination Scheme (ADS) group tourism
visa where the holder is travelling to the Schengen country that
issued the visa
- a flight ticket from the Schengen area, if you can
prove that you entered the Schengen area in the previous 30 days on
the basis of a valid Schengen ADS visa
- a valid USA I-551 Temporary
Immigrant visa issued by the USA (a wet-ink stamp version will not be
accepted)
- a valid USA permanent residence card issued by the USA on or
after 21 April 1998
- an expired USA I-551 Permanent Residence card
issued by the USA on or after 21 April 1998, with a valid I-797 letter
authorising extension
- a valid standalone US Immigration Form 155A/155B
issued by the USA (attached to a sealed brown envelope) All visas and
residence permits must be valid.
I have highlighted in bold the one that would apply to you. Please check with your own nationality and circumstances to be sure on the link provided.
