Transport
london transport is very good. Many tube stations and buses, for local stops or to go straight to inner London. Its easy to catch a black cab and local bus stops are everywhere.
Community
There are many shops and pubs in the area so it can get quite busy especially at peak times and evenings. The local folks are friendly. It's not quite as modern as the inner part of the city, most houses are victorian in design and can be expensive to rent or buy - there is a premium to live in this part of London. The area is very clean and tidy with street bins and during the evening the street lights are quite bright which helps us to feel safe and secure.
Amenities
Shopping is fantastic in this area whether it be buying a phone, a pair of shoes or your weekly food shop. They're all a stone throw away from each other. Parks and outdoor space is limited, but the common is only a 5 minute walk away where you can relax after a good shop.
Battersea has a mixed atmosphere parts are trendy and other parts need some regeneration.
We have a local festival every year that very successful with a great sense off community , great place to meet people and also found out what is new in the area. Battersea has a mixed atmosphere parts are trendy and other parts need some regeneration. Is suitable for everyone children pets. I live here 15 years and have never felt unsafe.
Transport
Clapham junction is the biggest station in London Waterloo and Victoria is a short ride away. Station is very clean staffed well good information boards. Reliable but if an issues they keep you well informed. Bus links are amazing there seems to be bus stops everywhere which will take you all over London . Busy area for transport but there is always another train or bus not far away.
Community
Battersea is very green and has some great wildlife the parrots are the best. Not enough free parking My street is a variety of different nationalities and mixture of homeowners and social housing and we have families, couples, students and even 2 schools and a community centre.
Amenities
Battersea know as Clapham Junction is one off the best area in South London to live We have some off the best local shops with some great products with good prices. You can go around the world with all the different restaurants ad take aways. Battersea Park is an amazing park with so many area to enjoy or just chill by the river. We have a large variety of bars and pubs ranging from theme bars to classic pubs which also serve some great food. The transport links are brilliant with 15 platforms in the station there is not many places you can’t get from here with good bus links too. 2 great Sunday Markets that have something for everyone. The only that is missing is a tube line but that is soon to come.
Most areas are safe but I would avoid going close to estates when dark comes.
I personally think that until renting and leaving costs stay stable it is still affordable.
Transport
Transports are very good as we can commute pretty much everywhere from CLJ train station and/or buses towards Chelsea and the West End
Community
There have been occasional instances of anti-social behaviors and killing of young adults probably belonging to gangs as happend around other London boroughs. Most areas are safe but I would avoid going close to estates when dark comes.
Amenities
Quality of shops is average with very few locals but several chains so the food is pre-cooked and not freshly made. The area has been targeted by new comers with disposable income and therefore prices increased considerably ove r the last 10 years. personally would love a bigger Waitrose.
The people here are great and diverse in culture and race.

relatively affluent and it’s certainly not a cheap place to buy or rent, but if you can afford it then it’s a great place to live
