Overview of E2 8AT, Kingsland Road, London

I just love how central Islington is to everything. Not only is my immediate area lovely and fun, but it's close to literally everything. 15 mins by bus to Stoke Newington, 30 min walk to Dalston, 30 mins by bus to London Bridge and Soho, etc. It's definitely up market and trendy, I can see N1 as a great place to raise children and have pets if you can afford it. I've personally never felt unsafe, although there was a stabbing incident last year right outside my flat building. Highly recommend it here! I'm moving to Dalston soon, but I know I'll be back very often. :)

Transport

N1 is definitely convenient and well-connected being on the Northern line. Getting anywhere in central London, especially King's Cross St. Pancras is easy and quick. The buses are amazing as well, I can easily take a number of buses to the City, London Bridge, Soho, Stoke Newington and more! The traffic isn't fantastic as you may have guessed, as it's so central, but it's to be expected in any big busy city. I don't cycle personally, but I've heard many friends say they wished there were more cycle paths. Old Street is part of the night tube service, but hasn't been open during the night for at least a year or 2 now.

Community

There's a good mix of who lives on my street - ranges from families, to those living in estates, students, couples. It's part of why I love it here so much! Diversity and mixing is good. I come from the US where neighbourhoods can be so homogenous, and I don't think it benefits anyone. I live on a quiet street, never had any issues with bin collections, no anti-social behaviour that I've personally witnessed. Parking is difficult, but doesn't concern me as I don't drive and don't think there's really a need to.

Amenities

Living here definitely means access to some of the best restaurants and bars that London has to offer! You can find high quality butchers, famous eateries like Ottolenghi, and trendy boutiques right outside your doorstep. Upper Street and Angel are always vibrant and brimming with life. Diverse Shoreditch and Dalston are just a stone throw away as well. Highbury Fields is lovely to take walks in and picnic in, but admittedly I think you can find more green open spaces in many other parts of London.

There is a park local so this would be good for children and pets. Good transport links so travel is not a issue if using TFL however if you drive you will struggle to find parking. Not really a sense of community as there is not much to do.

Transport

Very good links to bus stops and there’s a overground train station close by. Buses come regularly with a good choice of buses. No issues with night buses as they run 24 hours a day. No parking in area

Community

Bin collections are regular and the street/road is cleaned regularly. Not much anti social noise or behaviour although we do have the occasional parcel theft. Mainly private renters in the areas and some families.

Amenities

There are corner shops quiet often which is very useful and a club. There are no bars, or nice quality restaurants. There are a couple of junk food take out shops. A nice bar would be nice or a nice restaurant to eat at.
