he area being more high end is more expensive but the up side is it feels more safe.

The area being more high end is more expensive but the up side is it feels more safe. During the night, the streets are well lit and security is less of an issue. Pets would be a challenge as the streets are quite busy but by going to the right places nearby like Battersea Park, Holland Park, Hyde park, it is totally possible.

Transport

The buses are well connected and the tube stations are a 15 minute walk to either Gloucester road, South Kensington or Sloane Square. The buses are very regular however they do get stuck in traffic so sometimes it is faster to walk, especially during peak travel times. There is a great bus service to Piccadilly Circus which makes it very easy to get into central London

Community

A variety of people live on our street, personally I live in an apartment and some are owners and some are renters. There hasn't been any instances of anti social behaviour but sometimes the traffic noise can get quite loud, especially if someone has removed the muffler, which is surprisingly common.

Amenities

Living in SW3, everything is more on the pricey end, however by shopping wisely and going a bit further than Kings Road or South Kensington and going towards Earls court, things can be get cheaper. The shops towards Sloane Square are more high end and boutique and niche, as one would expect from that area. The streets are very nice and clean and the open spaces are very comfortable. The only down side is the traffic that is pretty bad. A wide range of supermarkets are also available, from Sainsbury's to Coop, all within an easy 5 minute walk. Transport is usually by bus and sometimes by tube. The buses are well connected and you can even take a bus to the nearest tube station if you are feeling lazy. The three museums in South Kensington are only 15 minutes away and you will find a few Imperial students in this area, due to the proximity to the world class university. Battersea park is a nice place to have a walk as well.

I most like the countless local shops and restaurants that SW3 has to offer. On the other hand, my least favorite aspect of my area is the unfortunate lack of parking spaces for those of us that drive and cannot rely on public transport to get to work. The atmosphere in my local area is pleasing and trendy. The area is very safe and suitable for families with children and pets.

Transport

There are many bus lines running through Kings Road with plenty of stops in between. This provides most residents with close access to public transport in the area. There are also well-defined cycle routes that make it easy for cyclists to get around. The busses are reliable, clean, and come regularly on a schedule. Unfortunately, there can be some traffic during rush hours so it's advised to plan ahead.

Community

The good aspects of living on my street would be the close proximity to a number of different restaurants and pubs that offer exceptional food. Furthermore, the transport links to central London and other parts are easily accessible and buses run frequently during the day as well as night. I have not experienced any anti-social behavior during my time here and the area has a friendly atmosphere. Most people that I know that live on my street are renters but I believe there are just as many homeowners in this area. The only downside of living on my road is that sometimes I struggle to find parking space but apart from that, it's a charming neighborhood.

Amenities

There is a wide range of high-quality local shops and restaurants in my area. Some of my favorites include Ziani and Benihana Chelsea which are two of the nicest restaurants in the area that offer delicious food. However, there is something for everyone and you won't have any problems finding a reservation for a date night. Burton Court park is located nearby and is a lovely open space in the heart of London. The Saatchi Gallery is a popular spot for art enthusiasts and is usually always lively with tourists as well as locals.

Generally safe, plenty for children as so close to Battersea park.

Generally safe, plenty for children as so close to Battersea park.

Transport

Many bus routes serve the area. However depending on where you are in SW11 a bus is usually needed to travel to a tube stations (South Kensington, Slone Square or Victoria) and to the mai station Clapham Junction.

Community

Parking is ok, can park but not necessarily where you would like and uses pay meters. Bin collection are great and street cleaning is good by the local council. Traffic is busy at rush hours. Many youths tend to hang on the main road which does not help the area but this is only main negative. Generally a nice community with a mixture of private and council housing.

Amenities

Very close to Battersea Park which is a huge bonus in an otherwise built up area. Many residential housing mixing between private and council. Some good restaurants and cafes but would benefit from more or more variety in options. Good transport linked to other areas.
