Lovely area; One of the best places to live in London. Affordable Housing

The area I live in has very affordable and decent housing. It's a good place to come to if you're looking for affordable accommodation or to rent apartments. Everything you need is here, shops are easily accessible. A friendly community resides here so the atmosphere is pretty calm most of the time.

Transport

There are lot's od methods of transport mainly buses and trains which are all found in the common places like train stations and bus stops. Transport is usually clean by you do get the occasional bus littered with rubbish and sorts. There is a rush hour in the evening and in the morning where people are on their way to school or work. It get's pretty annoying but it's the best form of public transport since theres occasionaly alot of traffic and roadwork.

Community

My street is a pretty quiet street and the houses are inhabited by large families. There isn't really any anti-social behaviour going on in the area as far as i've seen - the street is pretty clean, there's a lot of available parking even for a street next to a busy road with occasional traffic.

Amenities

There are a variety of shops and anemities in the NW10 postcode area - These places include everything you need for a simple lifestyle and are very accessible- There are many supermarket stores, corner shops and even a few pubs in the area incase you wanted to grab a beer with friends or just simply have a drink. There is a youth centre which is right next to a park which is very convenient, schools here are very close to the houses and with a variety of schools from Nursery, Primary, Secondary School and all the way to college. This variety in amenities provided a lifestyle which many would find easy and very convenient. Anything you want can be found here since it's a fantastic tight knit community. Although, it would be nicer to have more than just shops. Maybe a place of entertainment would make this postcode area nicer.

it’s a great community

There are so many local shops for food, variety of vegetables, fish, meat etc.

Transport

Good public transport links into Central London and overland rail to Euston. The underground station also served o. The jubilee line which means a trip to central London is on the card in less than 15 min

Community

The good aspects are the restaurants and bars there is also a cinema called Lexi cinema It's staffed by local volunteers, sells great wine, and has one of the most eclectic programmes of any cinema in London! In the summer, they also do outdoor cinema in the local parks.

Amenities

You can see the changes happening around you. The council now has £4 million, which are being spent on upgrading the public realm on Station Road and the centre of Harlesden,following consultation and work with local residents. And there are more and more local activities, and fun stuff going on. All good.

Bit of a warzone at times

My street is pretty downmarket, on the other hand the redevelopment of houses by private landlords has improved the appearance of buildings. There are plenty schools and nurseries for children and a small park for exercise, including playing football on Saturdays and dog owners wil welcome this green space.

Transport

The neighbourhood contains the North Circular and Harrow Roads, so is easy access for cars. The 18 bus runs to Euston and the 332 to Paddington and the Neasden tube station is on the Jubilee Line.

Community

Parking can be difficult, particularly during school run hours, bin collection is good but their is a fair amount of fly-tipping. In the last year there has been a fatal shooting, prostitution, drug dealing, cannabis cultivation. Terraced houses are being bought up as they become available and converted into studios let to tenants on housing benefit. There is no local student population and in recent years mostly people living alone have oved in.

Amenities

My street boasts two nurseries, a primary school, and across the local park with a handy outdoor exercise area another primary school and a Hindu faith school. The big local landmark, the beautifully ornate BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Hindu temple. If you meet visitors they will either be looking for directions to this or IKEA, which is alongside a Tesco superstore. There are good bus connections to central London and Neasden tube station is on the Jubilee Line. The neighbourhood consists of former railway company houses with no pubs though a former roadhouse on the North Circular Road has a 24 hour McDonalds. Sadly violent crime is a problem with a fatal shooting at one end of my street and a cannabis farm being raided at the other end of the street.
