W4 1DF is in London, in Ealing borough. From a total of 174 reviews, it is scored 4.35 out of 5, meaning it’s one of the best rated places to live in this area. 82 reviewers rated W4 1DF 5 stars. Observations from these residents include ‘Chiswick is a very stylish and trendy place to live and we will never move from here.’. Unfortunately, others were less favourable, with one reviewer remarking ‘I love the privacy and quietness but dislike the lack of community spirit.’.Only downside is that is can sometimes be a bit expensive and not always value for money
I find Chiswick very safe and have never felt uncomfortable walking on my own, but as anywhere you have to still be careful. It’s a friendly area which is child and pet friendly, lot of coffee shops allow dogs. This is a well established area with families. Only downside is that is can sometimes be a bit expensive and not always value for money as some shops have very high rents to pay and therefore have to charge more for their products to be able to get by, that’s also why some shops quickly have to close after recently opening leaving empty business spaces which is sad to see as landlords can be greedy.
Transport
There are several tube stops to choose from, depending on which area of this part you would like to access. There are also several buses as bus numb 94 which would take you from Westfield all the way to Chiswick. What I am missing though is that the Piccadilly line only runs before 06.50am and doesn’t stop at several stops during day times/busy times, and I also miss no longer being able to take bus 27 straight from Kensington High road with its amenities and close proximity all the way to Chiswick as TFL has pulled that bus which means you now have to change bus at Hammersmith.
Community
Lot of families with prams and also older people, as this area with its extremely close proximity to great green spaces attracts families and older people seeking quality of life outside the hustle and bustle of the city but still with the feeling of being central. There are not many garages available but mostly off street parking which you can pay using an app on your phone while visiting. Chiswick is generally a quiet area with lot of trees and green spaces. Bin collections area weekly for households. Street cleaning could improve by the council to remove litter and also lot of fallen leaves as it’s a leafy area.
Amenities
Dont miss out in Chiswick House, it’s a stunning park with beautifully maintained gardens. After a stroll there or in any of the many green spaces around, head to Queens Head for lunch, always fantastic food and service! There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops to choose from which would satisfy even the pickiest of us.
Chiswick is a very stylish and trendy place to live and we will never move from here.
Chiswick is a very stylish and trendy place to live and we will never move from here. It has everything you need for everyone, couple, families, children, pets etc. We most like the availability of everything, i.e. there is a vet, garden centre and more 5 mins walk away, it's all so easy.
Transport
There is a wide range of transport in Chiswick. There are at least 3 tube stops within the area plus the overground train which is very convenient. The tube and trains are very reliable and kept in good condition. There are a couple of different bikes you can hire and then dock anywhere, this can cause a problem sometimes as they are just left on the street but it doesn't seem to be too bad. There are a range of buses which are also well kept. They provide excellent access into the centre of London, for example the 94 bus goes straight from my house in Chiswick to Oxford Street. We are lucky to have such a range of transport in this area.

My street is very well located to walking to the High Road in Chiswick, just 6 minutes. There are a range of people who liver here, some who have been here for years and some younger families. They are mostly houses but there are some flats with renters. The parking is very good and there are always spaces, the nice wide roads also help. Traffic noise can be a little loud at times but it is generally fine, the bin collections are always on time. There are never any problems with anti social behaviour but I do feel at times the council could keep the streets a little better, i.e. picking up the leaves more quickly are looking after the trees and the weeds. The area is very pretty as there is a tradition to have matching white gates and fences in Bedford Park which looks very attractive.
Amenities
Chiswick High Road has a fantastic range of shops and restaurants. There are both independent and chain shops and a good variety of food, coffee and home shops. There is also an outstanding garden centre next to Turnham Green Station and a lovely homewares shop on South Parade. There are no amenities which are missing, it has it all! Along the river is also a lovely place for pubs and restaurants and to enjoy the view. There is a very pretty street off the High road called Devonshire road which has a lot of independent shops and coffee shops you can go to. Chiswick House is also close and it is an amazing open space to enjoy for a walk or a picnic. There are also green spaces within Chiswick to walk or exercise your dog.
I love the privacy and quietness but dislike the lack of community spirit.
I love the privacy and quietness but dislike the lack of community spirit. The atmosphere is bubbly . It is suitable for all including OAP's who can access local cafes, parks, leisure centres, bars etc.
Transport
The area is very well served by local transport with good transport links. The bus service for some of the buses needs to be more reliable and regular particularly the E3 route. the The buses should be better scheduled so avoid 3 buses at the same time or within close proximity leaving customers to wait for very long for the next bus.
Community
Parking is terrible on my street and the disable parking bays are creating an even bigger problem as the disable bays take up 2 parking bays space which is unnecessary. The bin collectors are very inconsiderate and not take the extra bag if placed along side the bin due to not having space in the bin. This has created a problem with the foxes which are now strolling down the streets as they are aware of where there next meal is coming from. It feels very restrictive in your home when you are have neighbours knocking your door and reporting you to the local authority for having small family gatherings or talking in your home during normal hours. We have a mixture of home owners, renters, couple and families residing on my street.
Amenities
My local area have a wide variety of high end shops including boutiques and restaurants, friendly bars with live music and lovely well maintained parks for picnics. You are not limited to the type of cuisine and dining options. The area has a range of family freindly restaurants and leisure places. The high road is particularly popular with a bustily night life both weekdays and weekends. It is a great for socialising and meeting new people. The area could do more high street clothing shops and larger Waitrose and Savers shop.
Very low quality restaurants and shops in acton high street

What I enjoy the most about Chiswick is the feeling of being like a in small town, where people know and help one another.
