The place is in serious need of more greenery. The pollution is bad and there aren’t proper green spaces around. Finchley Road doesn’t have a single tree, it is the ugliest place in the area. I avoid going to the shops there because it is just a depressing sight. There’s a university dedicated to music in Kilburn, not far, and I find it sad that there aren’t more spaces for live music or socialise. My area is very close to central, has great transport links and it has a shopping centre and spaces that could potentially become more interesting. The lack of option for sustainable living is overwhelming, the area could do with something like that, although I fear those things tend to be overpriced. The farmer’s market by the library is a joke, there’s three stalls and two have already made food. The library can’t be used to study because teenagers can’t keep it down and the staff doesn’t give a crap about it. It’s a real shame because the place is huge and has tons of interesting stuff. The gym by Swiss Cottage is okay, but overcrowded so it’s impossible to book anything. The Virgin one in the O2 centre is too expensive.
Transport
Public transport in the area is very good: lots of trains options and buses. There are also good cycling routes. Finchley Road is Sergio though, there’s always traffic, cycling there is disgusting and dangerous.
Community
The best thing about it is the one stop to Euston train as well as the option of the jubilee line. You can be in central in 15min. However, it generally feels safe and I don’t mind walking home alone at night. The Tesco opened until 11 everyday is also very convenient. I’m not sure the kind of people who live in my street but I have seen a bit of everything: families, young people, teens... people in my building don’t seem too social and those who are, have young children. I do think depending on the side of the road you get different things since one side of the road has nice houses and the ones in the other side look like they’re falling apart.
Amenities
There are several shops and restaurants in Finchley Road. They’re not amazing though, three or four pharmacies (do we need that many?) and all the boring coffee places like costa, Starbucks and Pret. The restaurants and bars are not that good either: an expensive kebab place, a yo sushi were they ignore you, and more and more chains. There seems to be a lot but nothin that’s interesting. There is a nice café and a cool Japanese shop by Finchley Road station, Oliver Bonas, Waterstones and Paperchase in the O2 centre, good for buying presents. Saynsburys in the O2 is pretty good, as well as Waitrose. Everything else is just awe full. Towards Kilburn it gets worse although TK Max makes it a bit more interesting. Pubs are nowhere to be found except for the Swiss Cottage (which doesn’t have the best beer, but is better than nothing) and the wine bar by South Hampstead, which is probably one of the best places around. You’ve got to walk far (towards Saint John’s Wood) to see something a little more interesting. There aren’t many green spaces, and Finchley Road is probably one of the greyest places in North London. It’s a road made for cars which everyone who lives around hates.

I think the life that I have created in my local area is great. It is a great area to bring up your children, as there are several local high schools, which are also very reputable to attend. There are also great childcare options if you are a working parent and need that support. The area is also great for pets, as a lot of our neighbours are pet owners and there are lots of areas to walk your dogs, etc. I would consider this area to be safe.
Transport
The transport in this area is great as we have both underground services as well as overground services. Also, we have a lot of bus links around here, for example we have the 31 bus which will take you to Camden Town as well as the 98 bus which will take you to central London. Not forgetting bus 16 which will take you to Victoria.
Community
Living on my street specifically is great as there is a real feel of community here. Our neighbours look out for eachother and it is almost like living with family. Further, we have local parks where the kids can play in the summer time as well as a big playground area.
Amenities
The quality of life in this area is good. We have a mix of a lot is leisure activities such as parks for the children to play at during the warmer days as well as a lot of shopping opportunities such as TKMaxx, Primark, Clarkes and other local charity shops. We also have a mix of different supermarkets to buy groceries at for example: M&S Simply Food, Sainsbury’s, Iceland, Tesco and Aldi. We are also very close to central London; it is just a short busy journey away Oxford Street. Living here, we get to experience the best of both worlds - quiet as well as busy when needed.
North Maida Vale, NW6 4QP0.6 km from your searchI 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.
