Archway is a mobile area, changing all the time. Thankfully it is still family friendly with good schools at all levels. There are many Archway communities that have flourished on the internet and their is widespread local help during the pandemic for vulnerable residents.
Transport
Absolutely outstanding links to of London, south to the West End and the City and plentiful routes both local and further field over all of north London.
Community
On my estate, there are good bin collection facilities, a mixture of owners and renters. Both couples, singles and families populate this area with close links to all of Archway.

Archway N19 is an area of many changes. Still part of the older London localities, it has in recent years accelerated its progress to a much more modern central area of north London. It has attracted new shops - not always to everyone's pleasure, but Aldi, M&S Foodhall and modern lively coffee shops are welcome additions. A new road system around Archway Tavern has made access to the central island easy. So what are the good things. A great London hospital - Whittington - a matter of hundreds of yards from Archway Centre. Easy access to Parliament Hill and Hampstead Heath with the mysterious and famous Highgate Cemetery en-route. Archway also has the most fantastic transport links with connections by Underground and bus directly to the West End and the City of London as well of links all over north London with plentiful buses and British Rail network. On the downside is that property prices and rents have increased in the last few years. High buildings are proposed for the Archway island area. Also local pubs have diminished in quantity and few older taverns remain. What is needed is a good ironmonger to replace the much missed Thomas Bros. And more local shops and creativity would be welcome. But still a great place to live and work
A lovely upcoming area in zone 2!
The area is safer than a lot of people expect. Pet and children friendly especially with Finsbury Park there. The area is being continuously developed so its a great place to be in. I personally love the transportation access and routes available. They help me commute quicker and cheaper
Transport
The area of Finsbury Park is great. Great train and rail connectivity to central london and heathrow. You have the victoria line, picadilly line and national rain trains that go out of london too. Bus wise, there is a bus station right outside the train station and as the traffic can get bad, public transport is the best option
Community
Residential parking is available to many residents and pay and display bays and areas are widely present. The area is full of mixed groups from families to students with the rise of the student accommodations in the area. Traffic can build up at times but only during peak hours. Bins are collected every week
Amenities
There are a lot of gyms, pubs and restaurants on the high road and you can find every big chain restaurant in the area. If you are a football fan then the Emirates stadium is a 10 minute walk from the station and finally for excercise you have finsbury park which also host numerous events such as Wireless festival. Its a lovely diverse area with a lot to offer
Close to Hamstead Health - a lot of options for outdoor exercising.
Some areas need uplift for professionals, more markets would be welcome.
Transport
Tube/ Overground choice. Bicycle routes and storage if needed.
Community
Some streets can be noisier with traffic, but reasonable and not too invasive. Could be more spots for free parking.
Amenities
Plenty of choice for shops - Aldi, M&S, Tesco, Sainsbury’s and local off license with choice of organic and healthy foods, bakeries and convenience stores.
All the neighbours are lovely and there’s a good sense of community.
