Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in London

Local area is fine with no major issues, a bit grubby but fine. It is close to underground and stamford hill.

Local area is ok but a little boring as there isn't much in the way of shops, &c. It seemed like a relatively safe neighbourhood but eerily quiet.

For me the local area was unpleasant although as mentioned the long term neighbours were lovely. Really pleasant people. There was a lot of movement among neighbours but that is to be expected in London. It is on a long road with several late night corner stores. It is reasonably near to a late night Tesco superstore. As mentioned bus stop opposite and overground train station a ten minute (at most) walk. I cycle and the cycling was horrendous. The roads and infrastructure are poorly maintained, large potholes, and dangerous driving.

Fine, well located for joys of rye lane and station. Neighbors a bit noisy but overall the location is really good and close to the park.

The flat is in a very good area, close to transport and amenities. High street is in walking distance.

Burgled twice. People urinating in the doorway every week. If you can bear that, well situated for shops and travel.

The area is magnificent. Love it. Strongly recommend if you are into sports. River path there is awesome.

The area is lovely and safe which is why we decided to move there. Just in the wrong flat !

Really nice area, easy access to everywhere and near the station and hampstead heath.

It is a really lovely area with lots of amenities all around a quick walk to a local Sainsbury’s and co-op. The bus stop is almost outside the flat and their are tonnes of bus links all around. The only slight downside is it is quite a walk to any tube station so most the time it requires a bus to get their, but if it were any closer the rent would have been a lot more.
