The area north of NW5 is very safe, quite posh and traditional, although quite multicultural as well in some places, especially around the tube stations. It is nice with children with several schools a walkable distance, and perfect for pets: it isn't rare to see cats walking around, and of course Hampstead Heath a few minutes away is dog heaven with a lot of furry friends walking around. I really like the feeling of being in a village with everything close and the park with a beautiful view on the city, all while being very close to Central London with transportation.
Transport
I find transportation very good. The tube (Kentish Town and Tufnell Park) could be a 10-15 minute walk depending on where you live in NW5, but there are buses everywhere, going everywhere in London. I find them really practical and cheap, and they run really often even at night. With the overground as well there are many options for transportation that are reliable, safe and clean. However during rush hours I would recommend the underground to go to Central London, as traffic can be unpredictable and buses can take longer than planned, so there are better for short distances.
Community
In my street there are mainly families and empty nesters or retired people, there doesn't seem to be many young children though so it is also very quiet but still lively. The main streets might be noisy but mine and most streets around are very quiet. I have seen no problem with parking availability, bin collection or anything else, and the streets are always very clean.
Amenities
There is everything someone could need around Kentish Town underground station: shops from the cheapest (Lidl) to the highest quality/organic cute shops and everything in between, bars around the main street, and every food option throughout the neighbourhood so no need to walk too far. There are also a lot of nice restaurants and shops around Tufnell Park station for those who live more north of NW5. You won't find much for clothes shopping but there's several charity shops, libraries, and also medical centres, banks, or anything needed. For events there is the O2 Forum, and Hampstead Heath is a few minutes away (the best part!) so you could easily never leave the neighbourhood. Transportation is really good as well with the Northern line, Overground, and buses going everywhere in London. NW5 is the perfect place to have a more relaxed lifestyle, by the park, with quiet streets but every amenity a short walk away - all while living only 20 minutes from central London and a walking distance from Camden. It might not be as vibrant as other London neighbourhoods though, maybe more adapted for families and professionals than students.
Chetwynd Rd, NW5 1DA0.3 km from your searchAmazing green spaces and a great community
I like the atmosphere and how close you are to some of the most amazing green spaces in London!
Transport
You’re never far from a bus stop, tube station or overground with great links from Gospel Oak or Hampstead to Clapham and Richmond, buses that take you direct into the central London too.
Community
I’d say it’s a quiet area, not much disruption however some roads don’t have the best parking but overall a friendly area to live, mostly families and couples live here with great access to primary and secondary schools for families.
Amenities
The shops are great, local corner shops nearby and a great range of cafes and brilliant butchers, lots of fun local pubs surround the area! Great green spaces such as Hampstead Heath, Highgate Wood and Waterlow Park, dog and cat friendly area too.
Pemberton Terrace, N19 5RY0.3 km from your searchcould do with a flower shop and a general store as quite limited
The area is friendly I feel people watch out for each other local parks and the Heath within 20 minutes walk good transport links tree lined streets. Local for kids and two primary schools locally. Negative side of living here people begging on the main road and drug user around the main underground station at times. I have lived here for over 20 years and have brought my family up here and have never been involved in any incidents my child when younger use to play on the street with their friends. I have a dog there are 5 local parks the further being 20 minutes away. Overall good area
Transport
Good transport links underground and overground stations within 5 minutes walk of the main high street local buses to central London west and east London
Community
Quite street friendly people street is off the high street.Parking outside with permits for residents and pay and display for non residents mix of renting and home owners living in the street I feel safe living here.
Amenities
Lots of bar and cafes good grocery shopping provision beautiful gift shop Map on junction road could do with a flower shop and a general store as quite limited community would benefit from more cultural small shops beautiful parks locally Hampstead Heath and Waterlow park hood sense of community.
