Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in London

Wonderful neighbours, lovely area, fairly close to transport links and local amenities. Fantastic free parking, would love to live in an area like this again.

We like the area. Neighbours are generally friendly and helpful. Next door they do not take care of their garden and feeding squirrels with peanuts. Therefore there are peanut shells everywhere.

Apparently the qhile road is mould ridden according to a neighbour. Very muddy road, dont bother buying any decent shoes.

Good transport, but the opposite of "up and coming". Tube line is regular but one of the worst. Large family houses overpriced resulting in multiple occupants with aggressive attitudes and parking, and little interest in the area.

30 second walk from Tottenham court road tube station. Beautiful road. But noisy drunks outside the windows in the evenings. Frequent road works too.

The road the house is on is nice, and some of the surrounding areas are also nice. There are some clear signs of improvement such as an M&S food and good bars/cafes. Streatham High Street is still not that great though.

Muswell hill is wonderful. It's 20 minutes walk to the tube. Plenty of pubs and shops. Feels safe and friendly

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.
