I love the trees and period feel and peacefulness of the immediate area coupled with the range of amenities. The speed of development is amazing with numerous flats popping up nearby and crossrail set to arrive soon this is an area on the up and can only get more upmarket. There are a lot of schools and playground in the area so great for kids. The local Mill Hill gardens is a hidden gem!
Transport
Acton Town tube gets you into the centre of town in 20 minutes or out to Heathrow very quickly so it's a great area for a pilot or air steward! There are a good range of local buses serving local areas. And at some point in the near future when the delays subside, crossrail will serve Acton Mainline.

The Mill Hill Conservation area is a gem in the middle of an urban area. The lovely period properties, wide tree-lined streets and the original wall and gates make you feel like you've stepped into the turn of the twentieth century. Unfortunately, the bird poo on your car roof if you park under a tree bring you right back! This is a really calm and tranquil haven in a busy urban area which gives you the amenities of the city with a local village feel. Parking is available through Council permits which are surprisingly affordable.

Between the Vale, Acton Central, Ealing and next Acton Town tube, there are a wide range of eateries within walking distance catering for all tastes. If you want to go upmarket, then venture slightly further to Chiswick and you won't be disappointed. Groceries are well covered by a number of smaller local stores dotted around and for tbe big shop, you have Morrisons and the newly opened a Iceland and Lidl next door. There is a real lack of good pubs in this area. You have to travel a bit further to Chiswick and beyond for this. There are a few options like The Aeronaut (except on Friday and Saturday nights when it turns into bedlam - good if you're young and don't mind sacrificing your weekend to a hangover) and the George & Dragon for a more chilled out experience. If you're willing to walk 15-20 minutes then you have Ealing Common and Acton Park which are both great open spaces. There are other smaller patches here and there more locally.
What I love about Chiswick is its green spaces, the proximity to the river, and the architecture.
What I love about Chiswick is its green spaces, the proximity to the river, and the architecture. I love that it is cosmopolitan, both in its population and the services available. It’s relatively clean and it feels safe. The state primary schools are good to brilliant, but maybe secondary school Chiswick School needs a little help. There are good private schools. Hounslow and Ealing Boroughs seem all too keen on selling space for ugly advertising towers and high rise tower blocks, ruining what makes Chiswick so special in the process.
Transport
Chiswick has an excellent bus service along the High Road, and some key routes in nearby places. I feel this service is not as good as it has been in the recent past. There are 3 tube stations in the area, all served by the District line; Turnham Green being the main station. Piccadilly line stops there only late late evenings, but it would be great if that service was extended to cover all hours, as this station is extremely busy. There are two Overground stations too, and Chiswick railway station, of course, making Chiswick a very well served area. Sadly the A4 cuts Chiswick in half, and is often very congested, causing big problems.

My quiet street is very nice. We have a great community spirit with email- and WhatsApp groups to help each other. The street is predominantly populated by families who own their house. Parking is unusually good, the layout of the street works in our favour. You can usually park outside or near your house, but there are not many spare places at any time. The bin situation is very poor indeed, on this Ealing Borough side of Chiswick. A couple of years ago the decision was made to cut the rubbish and recycling collection from weekly to every two weeks. We were issued with two massive wheelie bins for this purpose, and the look of Chiswick was drastically made so much worse. Most front gardens now look awful, they are simply too small to house these industrial sized bins, and, sitting in your front rooms, you can no longer look out into your gardens, the bins are in the way. I am gutted that so much money has been spent on this venture, to save (?) money long term. I know that many people still have to take their cars to Sainsbury’s recycling centre, because bi-monthly collection isn’t enough, and so adding to congestion and pollution. I also wonder what happened to all the old, mainly plastic, bins. Were they recycled?

Chiswick has a great range of shops, normally. What made Chiswick stand out for many years were lots of brilliant independent shops. W4 has been blessed with a huge range of quality restaurants, and nice pubs; it’s been said Chiswick High Road boasts more restaurants than any other high street. During 2018 things started to change, with some shops closing, and by the end of 2019 many shop- and restaurant premises were empty. Even long established shops and chains had gone. Chiswick still seems to have fared better in this respect than its neighbours. On the other hand, the parks of Chiswick have improved massively in the last ten years, both in therms of planting, and in play equipment for children and teenagers, the playground on Acton Green being a wonderful example. The walking paths along the river are also extremely popular. There are places to play football, netball and tennis. We could do with more public toilets and drinking fountains.
