Overview of SW8 4HJ, Carey Gardens, Nine Elms
SW8 4HJ is located in London, in the borough of Wandsworth, Greater London. It is rated 3.99 from 67 reviews, and is one of the lower rated places to live in this area. SW8 4HJ was rated 5 stars by 12 reviewers. Comments from these reviewers include ‘Friendly atmosphere’. On the other hand, the comments of less happy residents include ‘A lot of traffic noise’.There is great disparity between certain parts.
Likes: Central location and ease of access to other areas. Everything required on a daily basis is close to hand. High Street has a reasonably buzzing, young, trendy vibe especially at night. Area generally accommodates most age ranges. Dislikes: The overall feeling and look of the area is that it is in desperate need of a major regeneration programme. There is great disparity between certain parts. Areas that have a high concentration of renters are dirty, run down, neglected, look and feel like inner city ghettos. Other parts where private ownership is high are cleaner, better maintained and look ‘posh.’
Transport
Good variety and selection of transport links including buses, tubes, overground stations and cycle routes. Generally all are reasonably reliable, however rush hour brings great overcrowding especially where tube service is concerned. Clapham Common station which is heavily used, cannot cope with normal average rush hour capacity always leading to queues extending right outside the station.
Community
Good aspects: Fairly central location making it easy to access other areas. Good location for work availability. Good transport links and good variety of local amenities. Clapham Common offers a pleasant open space with some leisure activities. Bad aspects: Area is too densely populated often resulting in overall poor quality of life. Outside areas are either neglected or poorly maintained. Anti social behaviour is common and insufficiently challenged. Excessive noise pollution. Parking is problematic due to closeness to high street and Clapham Common. Residents are mainly families and renters.
Amenities
A mixed variety of local shops on a buzzing high street, including many good quality independent traders. These predominantly include pubs, bars, restaurants, eateries. There are also chemists, post office, stationery shop, supermarkets, coffee shops, carpet shop, hardware, DIY shops, library and gyms. Clapham Common itself is an extremely popular open space used for organised events as well as by locals. There is a lack of affordable clothes shops in this area.
Friendly atmosphere
Travel Fast food availablity
Transport
I would rate it highly, there is a range of availablity when it comes to Bikes, Bus, Tube and overground. There is a lot of options and I never need to struggle to find travel in my area.
Community
Good - - Rarely any anti social behaviour - Bin collection comes consistently - Friendly atmosphere Bad - - Very noisy - Parking can be an issue
Amenities
They are alright, however I find my area lacking fast food restaurants such as Chicken and chips, Kebab, etc. I would say the overall quality is alright however there is a lack of variety when it comes to it overall.
A lot of traffic noise
Like - closeness to certain places Dislike - everything else
Transport
Transport links are great though the buses are always busy in the morning and you have to wait for a few, sometimes they don't open the doors. Could be better in that sense. A lot of noise from traffic on Wandsworth road which is a very negative side.
Community
A lot of traffic noise, kids playing outside all the time without adult supervision, not very good behaviour on my block.
Amenities
There are a lot of shops around which is quite good, not that many bars around Wandsworth Road Station but Clapham isn't that far.
Excellent transport links, buses, tube and trains!

What I like about Stockwell is it only takes 10 minutes by bike to visit the Major attractions like the Big Ben.

No good schools, too much crime, lack of shopping malls and cinemas.
