Its a bit old fashioned with the red green and blue buildings but does feel like home. I think more shops should open below the buildings rather than parking garages. More money for the community. People would shop local. Giving more jobs with the community. May even help with the young troubles. Plus im pretty sure who ever owns those garages would get more money as a shop
Transport
Theres bus stops all around us all minutes walk away. Going in all directions. Got marlybone station 10 minuted away and edgware road station 15 minutes away. Have the santander cycle service downstairs. We do get alot of traffic on marlybone road and edgware road. Cycling and bus is easier
Community
There are loads of parking space do tend to get hard to find a spot after 6. Bins dont smell like they used to which is great. There are alot of young boys and girls who never have given me any problems but do hassle others making it look like a bad area for new people The people i know off are mostly coucil housing and they live as a family. Very less home owners but there are a few that i know of.

I love the area. Nice large confectionery store literally below my building and next door to them is a fairly big laundrette i use them only for drying right opposite me is an open outdoor gym equipment free for all to use, which saves me money on the gym. Around the corner we have a decent quiet park which is nicely laid out and bit further a very large playground sectioned off for smaller children and has a large football and basketball pitch plus with a nice view, which is a stone throw away, of the canal. From my house im a few 100 yards away from church street comprised of many variety of shops and stalls and libary there too. Got regents park 10 minute walk away. Local stations are marlybone which has underground and over ground. Edgware road is just a 10 minute walk down. Everything is local .
Perfect area of London!
Personally, I wouldn’t change it for any other area in London. Paddington is a ten minute walk and has all the bank branches which I find very useful. It’s a 5 minute walk to Hyde Park from there. Edgware Road has every restaurant and dessert place you can think of, it is at it’s best in the summer evenings. You forgot you’re in central London. Church Street Market is also worth going to every now and then as it tends to be very busy but it’s a great experience. Incredible fresh fish, fruit and vegetable and fabric stalls amongst everything else! On the other side of NW8 is Marylebone where you have museums, cafes, the high street and so much more. Little Venice canal is perfect for walks in any season. It really is beautiful,(although full of tourists during the summer making it a little tight for space)! St John’s Wood is my personal favourite, local cafes as well as chains which I do prefer most of the time but also has a lovely high street and park. Having worked in and attended primary and secondary school in the area, I can attest that the schools in the area are brilliant. There are many to choose from and they are all very good.
Transport
Access to the underground is a 10 minute walk for Edgware Road station and 15 minutes for either St John’s Wood or Marylebone station. Many buses all around the area with a variation of routes. A cycle route is also nearby on Little Venice.

Parking availability is usually fine. Bin collection is regularly and very good. My building is the only one on my street so we have minimal traffic noise. It’s a building of mainly families and no students. A lot of the area is mainly families that have lived in the area for many years. Not a lot of students.
Amenities
Really good quality of local restaurants. Many different types of cuisines in the area ranging in price. Very good independent cafes but there are also many chains such as Pret, Starbucks, Nero etc. Great open spaces such as parks, Sheldon Square, Little Venice canal.
The rent varies from £1000-1500 which isn’t too bad
Apart from the wonderful shops, restaurants and historic buildings in Marylebone, we always enjoy visiting Edgware Road on the very edge (western boundary) of this beautiful district. The Edgware Road corridor is one of the most vibrant places in London. Open 7 days and seemingly all night as well! This is a favourite gathering place for many Middle Eastern families -- not super-rich but definitely affluent. The number of Halal restaurants is beyond comparison. The excellent Waitrose and Tesco have a non-stop stream of customers. And it is a very safe area, thanks mainly to the civil behaviour of the patrons at the Middle Eastern shops and eateries
Transport
The whole of Edgware Road, top to bottom, will be safe walking in the evenings with kids, but keep them well away from the road if they are small, as the traffic is always heavy and fast.

There is 3 nearly schools to me which is great . The rent varies from £1000-1500 which isn’t too bad
Amenities
The whole of Edgware the traffic is always heavy and fast. Restaurant owners are mainly arab with most shops selling shisha and arab food
Little Venice is the best place ever to live in London

The only downsides to living here is that the A40 highway is going right nearby so sometimes there is a lot of traffic
