Transport
There are loads of cycle routes and buses, but closest train station is not so close by and it's at least 14-15 minutes walk. Service is very regular on all known buses and trains around the area
Community
Mostly families live on my street, and you can say half are home owners and the other half are renters in the council flats I think. It's usually not noisy, there are allocated parking for residents only at least until 6:30pm except Sundays. Bin collections are also very regular
Amenities
Just close by is Church Street, I live off that street. It has a range of bars and restaurants - including a Nandos and KFC nearby - so even with a lockdown you can still order food in quickly. There are loads of corner shops selling catering to different customers from different parts of the world-African, European, Asian, Caribbean etc. Stoke Newington library is just a few minutes walk away, as well as Clissold Park and Abney Park. Clissold Park has a pond as well so if you want to duck watch, you're welcome. There's also tennis and basketball courts as well as a multi-purpose event hall, there's also a small pool for kids as well as a lot of green space for sun bathing or running or walking your dog etc. Off Church street and adjacent to Clissold Park is also a leisure centre with full swimming facilities. On Stoke Newington high street are banks and an Iceland store as well as Halfords and Sports Direct. So it is a very good area for lots of things you want to do daily. Clissold park is very popular around the area. The only downside seems to be that the nearest train station, Stoke Newington station is about 14 mins walk and not closer, closest tube station is Finsbury park which you can get to on bus 106 or about 20 minute walk.
One of London's secret attractions
There's a local gym for everyone who wants to use it, a local church and mini mosque for anyone's religious. A reservoir which is one of the biggest attractions in London, most families tend to come. Some restaurants and pizzerias nearby. Local stores like sainsbury's who which makes living easier without a car. A lot of parking spaces and actuvities to join like sailing and kayaking for the sport lovers. Overall a peaceful and friendly place.
Transport
Luckily our area is near to a train station just down the road which most people access, sometimes it does get busy during work hours however there's a bus station right next to it which can easily lead you to your destination without a worry. There's a highway, so there's a lot of space for cars to move around which means its really rare if there's traffic. However if there is traffic there are many other routes you can take to reach your destination. Trains are regular and connect to kings cross. The station is slightly dirty however it's peaceful when you want a calm ride home or to work. The Main Street is clean, about 3.5/5 I've seen many cleaners around that help out.

There I see a lot of flat screen in our area and a lot still being built which has around 3-4 bedrooms, there's many families who come around especially to the nearest park that has playground and activities that they can have. There's a few students but rarely cause there's no colleges or universities nearby, only a secondary school. Bin collections are regular and keep the streets clean, everyone is friendly, especially store keepers. Not much traffic noise, it's mostly quite unless you travel outside. There's a lot of parking spaces, if you live in flats you've hotbed your own parking area. There's a gym you can visit and a church which means there's a lot of parking areas.
Amenities
We have a local reservoir/lake which is the biggest attraction including the swans and ducks that live there which attracts families especially in the summer where most people are out in the park they can let their children play in the playground. There's also lesson for sailing or kayaking. The second lake has a coffee shop that most people like to visit when they've walked round or rest, most families also walk over there to spend time in the shade in summer. The area also has new constructions, flats that look stunning at night when it lights but up and most people buy the flats because of the view at the top where you can see the whole of London. There's a fountain that changes colours and lights up especially during the night. Local stores and cafes around so you don't be have to walk off too far for the store. It's the best place in London.
The closest train stacion its about 15 min on bus.
To be honest iwould like to know that theres a park near by and it always too dark at night and and i like to go for run at night time after i get back from work the i liked the most was that the trasport its great to all differnet lines of underground aswell you literally just go until the other side of london and back
