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.

We’re a very communal area - during the first lockdown, a local musician used to hold outdoor (socially distanced) concerts that the street would attend. Theres a variety of Whatsapp groups, and everyone knows everyone and likes to help out, especially at the moment. There’s a lot of schools and nurseries nearby, and combined with the local park, makes this an ideal place for families or expectant couples. It also feels like everyone has a dog - you can always spot people out dogwalking and chatting to other dogwalkers too. Pets and children are pretty common. The only real disadvantage for me is that there’s not really many people around my age (now 20) which was annoying growing up, but the area has become much more social than when I was a child - not that it wasn’t social then, it just is even more so now!
Transport
West Hampstead Tube is a bit of a walk but is very well connected - same for the Thameslink and Overground. Buses are readily available and take you to a variety of places. Many bus routes, and the Jubilee at West Hampstead, run 24 hours on weekends. Rush hour gets a bit difficult - tubes are busy in the morning, and buses are awful at the end of the school day. However, other than that transport is fairly easy. The timetables are pretty regular and you’re rarely left waiting for transport.
Community
My street is mostly made up of families (often with young children) or elderly couples, and from what I know, primarily home-owners. Around the time of things like local fairs, the streets can get quite busy, but normally traffic is minimal, and virtually non-existant at night. Parking can be a bit more difficult, but you’ll usually find somewhere after a couple laps round the block.
Amenities
Fortune Green Park and the cemetery make for beautiful walks; a variety of independent restaurants and cafés; charity shops, pubs and bars in abundance. You can find all types of cuisine locally. Larger supermarkets are a small distance away, but theres many smaller ones (Tesco Extra, Sainsbury’s Local etc) readily available. Boutique shops (for clothes) and independent cafes and restaurants prove more expensive but definitely worthwhile. And there’s plenty of options for an after-work drink.
The area caters to an international community that lives in the area
It’s a great area if you want to save money and still experience London as it’s very close to centre and still offers a ray of international restaurants, supermarkets, pubs, and even a nice community theater.what’s missing is more of a night life .
Transport
Transport here in Kilburn is amazing . You are only 15 mins away from Bind street . There’s a few underground and overground stations . Plus 24 hour underground trains and 24 hour buses. Great links .
