Where you live?

Do you like/love or detest where you live?

I live in an urban area of South West London AKA Clapham, and I absolutely love my area and the culture. :love:

I used to live in Brixton and that was also a brilliant area!!!

I love the community vibe, the love and culture.

Even though the hood get's a bad press and reputation, I wouldn't choose to live anywhere else in U.K as it would most probably be dull and boring. :boring:

But on a real though, the hood is amazing. :daydreaming:

Which part of SE1?

Which do you prefer Wales or London?

Being in a quiet secluded area must be nice though compared to being in the bustle of the city?

I lived in Elephant and Castle.

I don't know I really really miss Londoninium

I like the peace and quiet, the pace of life is amazing its like slow motion compared to London the Lions Den.

Oh yeah East London is an absolute dump!!

Especially New Ham. The whole area smells of rotten onions.

I once saw that 1pound fish man in the market, I think he was on Britain's got talent. :curious:

But he got deported back to Pakistan though.

Used to live in SE London. Now I live in Kent where nothing ever happens. But it's nice at the same time, quiet, relaxed, suburban. I could see why a middle aged or older person or parents with young kids would want to live here but for a teenager it means my life is boring. And public transport is rubbish it takes 1 hour in public transport to get somewhere that takes less than 10 minutes when driving and its super expensive. whilst in london u get an oyster which means u can get the bus literally anywhere for free, or the tube which is super speedy.

We moved to Kent for 'good schools' as there are grammar schools here, which is fair enough. In London you can't go to a really good school unless its private. But I don't know if once I leave here for uni I will ever come back.
