One thing that seems very important to mention is that there is a community centre on our street that was particularly helpful during the pandemic as they distributed free food parcels to the neighbourhood but they also offer childcare, clubs and trips. There are two parks, a children’s park within the estate (accessible to anyone) and a dog park a minute’s walk further. There is a local shop a minute away, a few pubs and a local sainsbury and tesco and a cinema 10 minutes walk away.
Transport
As I already mentioned, there many train stations within walking distance, making a significant amount of journeys permissable, such as Tower Gateway, Tower Hill, Aldgate, Aldgate East and larger stations such as Fenchurch and Liverpool St, all of which are generally reliable. The traffic can be pretty bad sometimes, particularly from 4-6, but some days you can get lucky. I’d say it’s more an area meant to people who make use of public transport but it is also not impossible to have a car, as we have one. The traffic is not too bad depending on your direction, for example the Highway is pretty busy, the direction of Southwark, Limehouse, but smaller roads such as Leman St, Alie St, aren’t too bad. Buses include 15, 100 and others going in pretty much every direction except towards Limehouse/Docklands. The buses do not come to often however and I would suggest using train.
Community
The only issue with my street would be parking availability is pretty bad, traffic noise occasionally but genuinely not so often. The street is mainly filled with families. Bin collection is pretty good too, with loads of bins around.
Amenities
There are many things in the local area, exciting places to go that are a 5-15 minute walk. Tower bridge and the Tower of London, St Katherine’s Docks with restaurants that have the view of boats and water (particularly beautiful at night) for example Zizzi’s and Kilikiya. Just across the bridge there is The Ivy, Vapianos and more new restaurants to come in that vicinity. Not far from important stations such as Fenchurch, Liverpool St and very close to stations such as Tower Gateway, Tower Hill, Aldgate and Aldgate East. Not to mention Central London is a short drive away.
London, E1 8HR0 km from your searchMy home forever and always!
Although going through a significant period of regeneration, the charm and vibrancy of this area persists. My neighbours are friendly, the local amenities are fantastic, and I just love to call it home. This is the place to be in east London.
Transport
Tower Hill, Whitechapel, Shadwell, and Bethnal Green are only a stones through away. This area of east London is extremely well connected with various lines including Overground, DLR, and trains that go into the city.
Community
I don’t drive but if I did I know there are plenty of parking spaces available. Bin collections are normally on point and traffic noise is minimal.
Amenities
The Whitechapel area is booming with culture and vibrant shops, restaurants, and parks. I moved here about two years ago and now call it home. There is a massive range of take aways (which have become very useful during lockdown) that offer so many different cuisines. I never get bored. This is truly THE place the live in East London.

Not feeling safe is the worst part of living in this area. Needs a complete renovation.
Transport
Bit far away from the tube station but is doable. Transport links have a good service and it’s always easy to get back no matter where you’re travelling from at what time of day.
Community
Close to a McDonalds, close to a hospital. Tesco express is useful for grabbing what you need. Bin collections regular.
Amenities
Good food options but not much else to do. Not many bars around or places with fun activities. Needs more open space as currently feels very cramped.
