I most like how everything I need is close together, the shops, the park and the train station are all very close. The lido in the summer is could be one if my favourite things; I love how theres just so much to do, but unfortunately, to an expense. The area is very multi cultural and diverse; there are people from all places and all ages. You can be who you are and not be judged as everybody is used to diversity. "Off The Cuff" is a trendy bar with live music that hosts No ID where local bands play mostly rock while teens and older dance and have a mosh pit while adults stand at the back at watch. It's extremely fun and definitely worth the £4 needed to enter. One bad thing is that there are thieves and quite a few homeless people. A guy actually told me he was planning on stealing my bike before I came to unlock it. He walk around Herne Hill and upper Tulse Hill with a balaclava rested on his head like a hat and sells stolen bikes to locals. So if you have a nice bike, bring a good lock. Overall, I love this area and plan on living here as long as possible.
Transport
Herne hill has it's own station with the southeastern line and Thames link. The trains are reliable and the platform is well cleaned and in good condition. Many buses pass through Herne Hill although there can be terrible traffic sometimes and when there is, your better off walking or taking the train. The best way to get around herne hill is on a bike or scooter. It's a life saver being able to skip traffic and get anywhere you want with reliable timings. Overall, theres good public transport only that the buses are slow when there is traffic which is usually on Saturdays.
Community
My road is quite quiet mostly, with occasional wails from foxes in the night, bin collectors come once a week and there is decent parking availability. Most of the people that live on my road are extremely friendly. There are many couples and families and we have a street party most years where we shit off the street with the council's permission and everyone gets together and socialises with food and lots of activities where kids can play and meet other kids that live on the street. Anyone and everyone is welcome.
Amenities
Herne Hill has absolutely everything an area needs. It has: A train station, mini supermarkets, corner shops, pubs, restaurants, a huge park, a farmers market every Sunday, barbers, a post office, a range of schools nearby, bakery shops as well as butchers and a lot of other interesting businesses. The is a bar with live music and a hidden stage beside it which hosted many events before covid called Off The Cuff. Brockwell park has it's own bmx track along with tennis courts, a cafe, a paddling pool, a flower garden to relax in, a playground and even a BETTER(a company) gym, and a large swimming pool in The Brockwel Lido. On sunny days the park and herne hill centre can get very busy but it's what you would expect in London anyways. The one thing that it's missing (but is definitely not an essential) is an indoor skate park. It would give the young generation a good reason to get outside, find passions and excersize even when it rains.
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
Community
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.
The area is quiet, but could do with being a bit more lively.
The area is quiet, but could do with being a bit more lively. It is very safe, and has a family feel
Transport
Near denmark hill station. The overground is fine, but it would be nice to be connected to a tube for ease
Community
It is nice and quiet, and the council are good. It is mainly local families, but the area has changed quite a bit
Amenities
There are a few places nearby, but a broader variety in Herne Hill. The quality is good- often family run places, that care about service
The area is good for childrens and pets
