Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Stepney, London

It was close to shops and the tube was across the road. Luckily the road itself was very quiet. Very handy for getting into the city where I work. Stepney Green is very nearby too.

The house is so close to the tube, which is great to get to uni, and there's also a couple of supermarkets - Co-cop opposite the tube and a big Asda a bit further down the road. The street is quiet as its a no thru road.

The flats themselves are lovely, and because they are gated off they prove to be a bit of an oasis from Stepney Green, which whilst I never felt it was dangerous, is just a bit grim, with a lot of very utilitarian flats around. That being said there are a few decent pubs and such around, and Stepney Green park is very nearby. If you have a car, trying to get parking will be an abysmal experience - the flat is a 'car free proeprty' so you cannot get a parking permit.

Good neighbourhood, have to travel slightly to get to bars / nightlife. Well connected for transport, with tube 2 mins away. Lots of supermarkets and a market down the road
