The place empties out in the Summer as there are less kids and everyone goes on holiday - it's a great time to be here. I like the energy and buzz of living in a busy area, but it's great in the Summer when getting a table outside at bars or cafes is easier.
Transport
I go up to Camberwell Campus a lot. Can either get the train or bus. Try to take the bus, as its cheaper. Takes longer though. Often I get a seat, but don't go at rush hour times.

I live on the Pymers Mead estate which actually isn't as pretty as the rest of Dulwich as the architecture is more modern. It's a very safe estate to be on though which means I can come home late without worrying too much about getting mugged.
Amenities
Like my location a lot - in between a few shopping spots. Most have interesting shops - Dulwich Trader is a good shop for random interior bits. West Norwood good for cheaper shops - but like window shopping in Dulwich village and some West Dulwich shops. Herne Hill also cool - love Canopy Beer and Bullfinch Brewery.
It’s a multi culture area
It’s suitable for children and pets as we have Bel air park near buy and brockwell park either a bus ride or half hour walk. The downside is that lambeth council should the leaves from the pavement properly as this is a dangerous hazard if it’s wet etc
Transport
We have the 322 bus which takes us to west Norwood, where more cafes and shops are. This bus will also go into Brixton and through to clapham common, and back up to Crystal Palace. Grass are kept lawned. West Dulwich station needs to have a passengers lift installed as disabled people with mobility disability & elderly wouldn’t be able to go up the stairs.
Community
There are families who own their property and cancel tenants. The bad points are that the recycle bins sometimes haven’t been collected. Parking is ok when we don’t have people who doesn’t live around here use it asa car park while the get the train or bus into the city.
Amenities
Gp and pharmacy very close by, west Dulwich station within walking distance . No.3 bus to the city and close to good schools, cafes, shops etc
The area I live in is lovely and holds local communal shops, library and a close by train station,
It is slowly becoming more trendy and a lot more vibrant.
Transport
The train station is unfortunately not step free. However, the connections via the train station allows speedy fast commutes to London Victoria and Orpington Kent.
Community
There are lots of parking spaces and it is within a controlled environment. There are quite a few young people in the area but never troubled.
Amenities
The area I live in is lovely and holds local communal shops, library and a close by train station, which has great connections to London.
Best London Town to live in!
