The atmosphere is busy, bubbly and alive.

I love that I have Sainsbury’s on my door step . Local corner shops 2 mins away and my family was born a bred in the area. I dislike one of my neighbours which is a neighbour from hell, but the positives of the area irradicate that. The atmosphere is busy, bubbly and alive. Trendy and casual an all round place to live. There has been some regeneration in the area but more would be welcome. For example my old youth centre located on Townmead Road was the heart of the community for me and friends growing up. Would be amazing to see it up and running again for the youths of today. The area is as safe as can be for children and pets. Plenty of CCTV and neighbourhood watch groups and so on. Pleanty of green space for dogs with dog bin provided. Overall the safety I would give 85% out of 100 pretty safe. #LuvSW6

Transport

The is a very vast range of transportation links in the area from buses to British rail and tube. All within a good radius a 5-10 min walk roughly. On a good day most modes of transportation run on a decent service of course with the odd delay(due to accidents) for e.g. Most service stops are kept clean and run pretty well. Traffic you cannot avoid morning rush hour can be free flowing depending on the day as for the evening rush a lil bit slower but is gradually getting better. The night buses run pretty smooth too.

Community

I have lived on my street for 3 years. And love my street. Windows are south facing so I get all that beautiful natural sunshine beaming through in the summer. I’m a driver and parking can be a bit of a nightmare from time to time. But some how I always get a spot. Bin collections are every Friday morning and are always on time. Lately we do get a lot of anti social behaviour, kids hanging around, drug deals on corners what area has no anti social behaviour ( I wonder). I put the hanging around to the Covid-19 situation the kids are bored. My road is a 20 speed limit and many evenings I hear car speeding down the roads at what to me seems about 60, I dread the day someone gets hurt. There is positives everyone talks to everyone on my street. We have renters, as well as people who own their properties lots of families with children. The children are our future.

Amenities

I have lived in SW6 all my life love the area. There is wonderful array of shops, restaurants and bars most of the great quality in the services they provide. There are plenty of beautiful open spaces from South Park, to the Imperial Riverside Walk, which is one of my happy places. SW6 is a wonderful place for starting a business or family, very diverse and friendly place to live. The is a popular Pop-Up bar, Wonderland which has seemed very popular with the locals near and far, I would say it’s popular because you have a wonderful view of the Thames while chilling in a pod or section of the pop-up with drinks, music and friends. Having lived in SW all my life I would love to see more Black owned businesses in the area, more Black hairdressers, supermarkets, clothing stores entertainment and more this is all that is missing from the area.

Town feel in a big city

I like that Wandsworth seems like a town within the big city. It feels like home to me after moving down from a village. The sense of community good within the block I live in however I don’t really feel it with the wider community. Possibly because of how much people move around. I’ve always felt that Wandsworth is safe although some more street lights are needed in king George’s park. Overall I love living in Wandsworth!

Transport

The train service from Wandsworth town is relatively good, usually on time and approx one every 10 mins. I think Wandsworth would benefit from a tube station linking it to parts of central London other than Waterloo. Southfields or East Putney are the closest and they’re at least 20 mins away. There’s night busses direct from central to Wandsworth although they could do with being slightly more regular. Other than the lack of a tube the travel in and around Wandsworth is great by public transport. The roads are usually really busy especially around rush hour.

Community

I live in hardwicks square and it is usually pretty quiet. Occasionally at the weekends there is shouting at night in the square. Only a couple of times in the last year has this lasted for many hours. I think our block is mostly renters, usually young professionals. Parking is not good in Wandsworth. It is all either private residential or extremely expensive. It would be pointless having a car in Wandsworth unless you had a designated parking space.

Amenities

In the Southside area most of the shops and restaurants are chain. However, head down to the Wandsworth town train station area and a plethora of bistros and independent restaurants make for a wonderful evening. Wandsworth is packed with things to do like tennis, archery, shopping and restaurants. There’s also a relatively new food market outside Southside now which includes hot meals, jams and fruit and veg.

Amazing community but there is not much around the area

There are a few takeaways that are worth visiting. Although, there are not many restaurants from a wide range that can be selected from.

Transport

There is a bus stop nearby the area. However, there is no Underground Station around the area which could be an issue for those who need to get into Central London.

Community

You can make friends with a lot of the locals as the majority are parents that live around the area who are welcoming. I find that the community within the area is nice as everyone always helps each other out when in need.

Amenities

For parents with kids, this area would be pretty good in my opinion as there is a Primary School and Nursery nearby. However, one massive downfall I think is that there are no supermarkets around the area locally.
