There’s hardly every anything bad to say about the area you have lived in for the past 20 years

There’s not much else to say other than the fact that the area is animal friendly

Transport

The one very good benefit of Tower Hamlets specifically in transport we have busses that pass through and their end location heads right into the heart of London we also have travel links via train that take us to either main line stations or international ones too. Additionally half the busses take us directly in front of the tube station which means we are never late to work.

Community

The parking in the area is amazing lots of public parking available either for permit holders or for passer by. There’s hardly ever any traffic noises as there’s only one main called Bow Road

Amenities

The borough of tower hamlets has its ups and downs but places like bow and Mile End have more negatives. On the other hand the council has enchanted the area with a lot of security making sure every road has a active CCTV camera looking over the streets of tower hamlets keeping us all safe. The 20 years I have lived here I have seen the council evolve from being a dumb site turned into homes. There are plenty of local shops near enough every turn you make you’ll see either a off license or corner shop that has everything you need for your household shopping. The area doesn’t really have that many restaurants as it’s a borough populated with a load of families. Open spaces are one thing that Tower Hamlets council have made sure that the area has for example three mills park just off the A12, perdy park, Mile End park, Archibald park the bow commons and plenty more greenery spaces for everyone to enjoy, unfortunately due to the current pandemic we won’t be having a fun fair in the local park of ours as that could increase the death rate. There’s not much that’s missing in the local area as this borough is a very large area and has near enough everything inside it which means people do not need to travel a great to go and grab their essentials.

It’s the little things that make the area a cosy environment.

2 years ago, we’ve faced news of a murder and avid attack in our area. That was because there had been gang related violence. However I’d say that has improved SO much and I’d have to agree it’s a safe environment compared to before. Everyone is so lovely and new families are always moving in. Pets too. I’d say it has improved so much it’s a safe area for children to grow up. The area is lovely too with the wide open space and access to travelling.

Transport

Where I live, I’d say it’s easy for me to travel. I work in central London so it takes me around 5-10 minutes to walk to Bow Road station. I also have the 108 bus stop both side of my flat so I can travel to Westfield Stratford whenever. The DLR is right next to my house too, so travelling has never been an issue for me. I’d say the buses do arrive on time most of the time. I’ve never dealt with issues. The transport is fairy clean for me. But because I drive these days, I wouldn’t know. Overall I’m satisfied with my travelling. Everything is in front of me :)

Community

As someone who lives in a council flat, I’d say it is nice to park my car in a residential area. That’s because there’s a lot of space to. Even during night when it was packed, I’d at least find 1 or 2 spaces to park my car. I’ve never had to worry because I know there are spaces around my area. Bin collections are not so bad but due to covid it has been difficult for drivers to be allocated on time. However I’ve never had to complain about any bins in my area. In my area, there are council flat residents who have lived there for a really long time. Everyone’s very lovely but a lot of people do keep themselves to themselves. Again I’d think it’s because of covid and everyone’s just trying to stay safe. Myself included. However everyone is lovely and greet one another during occasions. It’s a nice feeling.

Amenities

I was born and raised in the area and to be honest, I find it one of the most comfortable easy going area to live by. The community is very lovely as it shares a diverse multicultural background. What connects us together are the schools, mosques, community centres and mini shops where parents and friends may bump into one another and greet each other. It’s the little things that make the area a cosy environment. The shop keepers already know what you want to order and the schools are very welcoming. You can hear people party on a Friday night as pubs are open till late. However due to covid, it’s been very difficult for most people. And this goes out to everyone living outside E2, E3, E14. But in my 20 years of living and growing up in the neighbourhood, I’ve never seen so many people get together and support one another during this pandemic. Everyones been following the rules and looking out for one another, helping families who have been struggling to support their own children with free school meals by handing out their own home made. It’s sad that we’ve had to experience it, but it’s amazing what this pandemic has brought out of us. It’s shown that there are people out there who actually care about one another and I’ve seen it all in my area. I’m honoured to meet families mentally and physically giving us support and this goes both ways. I’m proud of my area. And I am impressed with the construction sight these days. There are so many areas that have been refurbished and so many lovely buildings near by with little cafes and restaurants opening up. I’m very impressed with the vast changes that have been taking places over the past 2 years. My only wish is that I’d hope the area continues to stay clean, and by that I mean council flats where cleaners used to be allocated but I can understand that due to covid, everyone is going through a lockdown nationwide. Regardless I’m happy with the area I’ve grown up in and I’m proud of everyone working together to make sure we all stay safe. And I do hope we all make it through these unprecedented times.

I wouldn’t want it to be gentrified but there could be more activities in the area, it just seems like a place you wouldn’t visit if you didn’t live here.

Transport

Cycle routes are very good but most places you may go you will need either 2 tubes, 2 buses or 2 overgrounds. Transport needs to be improved greatly

Community

It’s mostly families that live here, bins are fine, don’t always feel safe maybe because the area could be cleaned more and area could be more tidy with an open green space rather than a locked garden that is just for show for the residents

Amenities

We have lots of grocery shops, a large tesco, nisa, co op. Only 2 pubs but they aren’t amazing. It’s missing local gyms, leisure centre, restaurants, transport links
