Comfortable and well equipped, upcoming London neighbourhood!

Wouldn't say the safest neighbourhood there is but definately not one that makes you feel unsafe to take an evening stroll. Wouldn't recommend the high Street late at night. In general the atmosphere is quite nice especially in the summer. I love that it's so easy to get to West Hampstead, Hampstead Heath, Camden and the city centre from here. All within 1h walking distance (faster with transport). Many nice roads to go jogging around as well! I feel like the area is changing as well, and for the better! I would especially recommend Queens Park, Kilburn Arms pub, Farmer's Market in West Hampstead and Hilal Food Centre for fruit and veg shopping.

Transport

Tube from Kilburn, Overground from Brondsbury and Thameslink from West Hampstead make Kilburn quite well connected transport-wise. Also there's quite a lot of buses going around what makes it quite easy to get to. Jubilee line goes 24h on the weekends what makes it easier for the people who enjoy London city center nightlife. The buses on the Kilburn High Road can get quite slow during rush hours due to heavy traffic.

Community

Ability to enjoy more quiet neighbourhood (less traffic noise) but at the same time being able to enjoy all the amenities that the Kilburn High Road offers. The street offers quite a lot parking space. Mostly families/ young couples occupy the houses with what I feel majority is renters.

Amenities

Kilburn High Road provides you with a wide range of shops, pubs and other amenities. Just by the tube station you got Tesco and Sainsburys and further down the Street other shops like Aldi, Tkmaxx, Sportzone, Iceland and M&S. Pub goes have a couple of them to choose from including North London Tavern (huge space and nice food, close to the tube station) , Kilburn Arms (beautiful interior and pretty calm, with huge back garden) , Sir John Campbell (cosy Irish pub with nice pizza menu) and Black Lion (located just next to Kilburn Grange Park) to name a few. There's quite a lot convenience stores and fruit and veg shops to choose from as well, with Hilal Food Centre being the biggest one and offering a huge diversity of products from different countries. You will find yourself at walking distance from three parks, Kilburn Grange, Tiverton Park and Queens Park. The neighbourhood is pretty safe but perhaps a late night walk down the hight street would not be advisable as it can get a bit dodgy. What is missing is post office that could be closer, at the moment all of them are sort of scattered around the area with 10-15min walk to get to one. All in all Kilburn is quite a cool place to live in as it offers decently priced housing with all the above-mentioned amenities at your hand.

Convenient & accessible living, one of the best areas to live in

What I like the most about my area is the convenient location and accessibility to services needed from day to day. I would say it could do with a bit of regeneration and modernisation in terms of aspect and the flats which seem to be getting old, such as the one I live in. The area is safe for children and pets and close to parks and green spaces for recreation. Only a bus journey away, Hampstead heath is one of my favourite retreats where anyone can enjoy a day out with family and pets.

Transport

Buses are always reliable, as well as the tube and the overground. It has a great advantage for not being one of the busiest areas to live in, as well as the bakerloo line not being so popular - even during rush hours, the carriage feels always comfortable to travel in, instead of packed. Cleanliness is certainly taken seriously during this pandemic. Traffic can get a little bit busy during rush hour by bus towards Central London, as I've had the experience to be delayed around 30 minutes due to traffic jam in Marble Arch. Otherwise, every location feels very easily accessible from my area.

Community

I believe around this area there is a variety of people, from young people to elderly, families and couples with children who can be seen on the high street after class. Both owners and renters. During the day, the high street is busy - more uncomfortably one would feel passing by beggars at times, however they don't seem to cause issues find a place to stay during the night. The streets are empty and quiet at night. In terms of parking, it seems difficult for one to find any availability as most homeowners also park their cars on the side road and there is no private parking space. Bin collection is always reliable.

Amenities

The area I live in is incredibly well situated in relationship to essential shops and services. Both the tube and overground services are within 5 minutes' reach, as well as the high street where there is a variety of services, shops and big supermarkets which make living & shopping very accessible. I also appreciate that this area is well-kept, quiet during the night and full of life and diversity during the day, and it feels safe for one who works during unsociable hours. To add on this, the connection to Central London is very, very comfortable, having a lot of regular bus routes even throughout the night, and the tube journey to Oxford Circus only taking 15 minutes. It definitely feels like a hidden gem for living conveniently.

I hate the crime rate here .

I like the diversity. But I hate the crime rate here . In it very in need of regeneration. The area is suitable for kids but not pets.

Transport

We’re very close to train stations and also bus stations which connect us to central and many more places in London. There is a lack of night buses.

Community

Families and couples usually live on our streets. Not many students. There’s not much rubbish around the blocks in NW6.

Amenities

There is a wide range of shops in NW6. There’s a variety of bars also. There’s known local areas such as Kilburn high road. We are missed fun activities.
