Pet hates are the condition of road and paved surfaces, disjointed bus services in some respects, and unsuitability of many properties for disabled people, especially wheelchair / mobility scooter users. .
Transport
Already discussed for most part,; district line reaching upminster one way & central London the other. Mainline trains also go to central London or out to coastal Essex
Community
Parking very limited overall, estate road's, paved areas, drains appalling. Bin & large item collection above average, though road sweeping seems sporadic at best. Train/traffic noise level not bad generally, with a large park other side of railway, and a large cemetery between estate and A13.
Amenities
Plenty of local shopping areas (normally), though Barking mini-mall almost completely closed at present. Buses overall pretty good, but some surprising gaps of coverage, such as routes serving the larger supermarket branches, with 5 district line stations across south of the borough, & 2 mainline stations at northern end. Very traffic intensive in several places, particularly at peak times, & road surfaces / paved areas need major attention, particularly road drainage, especially as southern area is at risk of flooding.
The area itself is dangerous.
I like most is that my child's nursery and school are nearby, same applies to shops. The area itself is dangerous. Very dangerous actually. The atmosphere in our area is.. Romania.. Gypsy Romania.. Those people are begging everywhere, they are rude and as soon as hundreds, or maybe thousands of them moved to Barking, this area has much more rubbish on the pavements, and it became overcrowded and overly loud.
Transport
Well, the trains and buses services are not that bad to be honest, although usually I have to wait for buses for a long time, therefore they are usually crowded. The cleanliness in buses and trains is average, but the toilets in Barking station are disgusting.
Community
Where I live, our neighbours in surrounding houses are English senior citizens. Fortunately, Wilmington Gardens is a very quiet place. Talking about bin collections, I am disappointed. Every Monday general waste gets collected, but recycled rubbish gets taken away around once a month, so we always have to pile up plenty of bags around the bin.
Amenities
The range in shops is pretty wide, you can find Chinese food, Indian food, Turkish, Polish, English and so on. We are always able to find what we need. The quality in most shops is usually good, only once in a while in Iceland I accidentally buy smelly meat. Well, the most popular place is Barking Park, and its amazing! There are lots of different birds, plenty of squirrels, kids play area, tennis courts, plenty of activities and beautiful nature. I think what is missing is indoor places for children's entertainment, and indoor activities for adults, like leasure centre with pool or a bowling alley.
There is not enough bars for people too go chill out or hav a drink.
It suitable for children it just some people wanna keep in your business n pets are cool but if u hav like a mastif dog just know that owners with small dogs are picking up them dog
Transport
Well London is dirty already but same time it a thing where transport personally I think trains n busses shud be cleaned more frequently n also shud be 24 hrs no matter the area
Community
Parking is okish but need more because people tend to park infront of someone’s drive way and then they can’t get in or out. Bin collections brilliantly done. Social behaviour is great Only time u really c traffic is when school runs
Amenities
Most shops are ok but some of them have no home training n no manners then you have take away food shops like why oh why they let beggers in when they just give problems I don’t know. There is not enough bars for people too go chill out or hav a drink. Parks are same like everywhere else open then close too build flats or houses s as n we defo need some places where the places are just open so for example someone can have a function in a venue without upsetting the whole neighbourhood
