Since moving to Herne Hill I have loved it! It's got a really fantastic mix of all the things you want nearby: ie shops, pubs, restaurants, plant / garden centres, swimming pool, open spaces. The people I have met in the local area have all been lovely and welcoming and it would be a wonderful place if you had kids.
Transport
Herne Hill Station has Thameslink services into central London and Victoria. Additionally it is a 20 minute walk, or shorter bus to Brixton to join at the first stop of the Victoria line, so good chance of a seat! The bus services are good and run to a number of different places. The one downside is that Herne Hill does not have its own tube, but its definitely not somewhere to write off because of that!
Community
The street I live on looks directly into Brockwell Park which is a massive plus. The street is relatively busy, but the traffic noise isn't that bad in the flat and the view and location more than make up for it. Our neighbours mostly own their flats and have all been very friendly since we moved, far more so than I have experienced in balham and Clapham. On the more mundane side the council bin collection runs weekly and has never refused to take anything we have left out.
Amenities
Herne Hill has a fantastic range of local shops, pubs, and restaurants. The main hub of these is around the station (where they also hold the Sunday Market) but there are plenty of others throughout Herne Hill. There is also a Sainsburys and Tesco for any day to day shopping. For green space there cannot be many areas in London better served than Herne Hill, with Brockwell Park (containing the lido, tennis and basketball courts, football and tag rugby pitches, miniature railway etc) right on your doorstep, and Dulwich Park, Dulwich and Sydenham woods, and Ruskin Park all easily walkable.
A fabulous place to live, whatever your age, whatever your interests , and you will.never need to move again
My area is an amazing mix, and uniquely something for all ages, tastes, families, older people, those who live alone and teenagers. Parks a plenty for dog walkers , and every house a garden for cats and other pets.
Transport
I wrote about this in my previous answer . The transport links are as I described there. Excellent, but no underground. If there were an underground connection nobody would be able to afford a house here

My Avenue is mainly owner occupiers. It I'd a wide road and there are no parking issues, though we do have to pay £125 pa to park in the road. Bin collections are brilliant it is the best Southwark service.
Amenities
We are within a 10 minute walk of 3 parks, 4 pubs , 18 restaurants and endless cafes, bakeries and a garden centre. We are within 10 mins walk of 2 state primary schools, one bilingual English/German , and one state secondary school which is excellent. There are 2 private senior schools within a 10 minute walk , and 3 prep schools. There are 2 GP practices within a 5 minute walk and several dentists. We have every single facility known to man except the underground. But we are sandwiched between 2 overground stations , 15 mins to Victoria or Londin Bridge and excellent bus routes. Writing all this has made me realise why I have never moved! SE24 is a fantastic area to live in, people know each other and are considerate and kindly neighbours.
Living on my street the good points are some excellent, friendly neighbours.
The properties are quite good, the porters try to keep the Estate clean. No anti social behaviour. Dustbins emptied regularly. Very quiet Estate, parking wardens enforce Estate but parking is free for residents. No pubic transport on or near Estate.
Transport
Tulse Hill and West Dulwich Stations are nearby makes getting to London Bridge or Victoria easy, also buses to West End.

Living on my street the good points are some excellent, friendly neighbours. We don’t seem to have much anti social behaviour. The estate is owned by Peabody Trust and is mostly rented property.
Amenities
It’s hard to live on Peabody Hill, especially if you are old or infirm, or pushing a pram. No shops nearby the nearest are at Tulse Hill, but good shops in Norwood Road. if you don’t mind a walk or Stroll it’s OK. In the local area is a very good Junior school Rosendale, and also the difficult to get in Kingsdale. Excellent Private Schools nearby . Not to Far a walk to Brockwell or Dulwich Parks. Excellent places to eat in Dulwich Village and a few nice small shops. Rosendale Pub and Alleyne’s Head both about 10 min walk away. Tulse Hill Tavern bit nearer. Good bus services from Norwood Road and two station West Dulwich and Tulse Hill are a short distance. Very nice community living on Birkbeck Triangle.
Great area for familys
