I most like the people in my area , because they really are exceptionally friendly , kind and helpful . You know that they are always there to support you . It is well looked after by the residents , though not so well by passers through , who are sometimes inclined to drop litter or dump rubbish , which is such a shame . It is fairly safe , relative to other parts of London , but house burglary is still an issue and needs residents to be vigilant . It is very suitable for children and pets .
Transport
Chiswick is very well served by public transport . We have three tube stations : Gunnersbury , Chiswick Park , Turnham Green (four if you count Stamford Brook) . There are three overground stations : Chiswick Station , Kew Bridge and Gunnersbury . There are multiple bus services available from the High Road too . All these services are regular most of the time (there is the occasional cancellation or delay , but this happens in any area of London) . Most of these services tend to be centred close to the High Road , so if you live a way away you may have a walk to and from , but no more than about 20 minutes . New cycle lanes are in progress and this will make it easier for cycling .

My street is absolutely fantastic ! Being a cul de sac it is very quiet and everyone who lives there knows everyone else . We all help each other out if needed : people are friendly and sociable . Some of us have parties and coffee mornings for our neighbours . It is mainly all home owners with just a few renters . Bin collections are regular and parking is regulated by the CPZ scheme .
Amenities
Chiswick offers a good range of shops and amenities . We have three supermarkets as well as many independent shops which supply a diverse range of goods , particularly of an artisan or craft type . The pubs , bars , restaurants and pavement cafes are legendary . There are so many to choose from both along the High Road and along the river . It is a delightful experience to sit outside one of the cafes on the tree lined High Road , enjoying a coffee , as a pleasant interlude during your shopping , especially when the sun is out . You feel you are part of the 'buzz' and the general excitement that fills the atmosphere . Down by the river , it is absolutely sublime , with pubs between Kew Bridge and Chiswick Bridge all offering terraces or outdoor tables with stunning views of the river and tow path . There is a real holiday atmosphere here , where you could almost imagine yourself to be on the Chiswick Riviera ! Everywhere you look , people are sitting outside with their drinks , chatting , relaxing , reading or simply communing with nature . A little bit of the countryside in the city . It has to be one of the most wonderful , most desirable and idyllic places to live in London .
Traffic is terrible, I prefer to use my bike instead of the car. Other than that this is a great area for everyone!
I love to watch the sunset on Thames Road. You have to do that for once in your life. Other than that we need more buses there. This area for suitable both kids and pets. And I believe this area is very safe. I didn't hear anything almost in 3 years.
Transport
You have to walk 20 mins to reach the tube stations. There are Kew Station and Chiswick Park station and they both are not so close. Buses are okay but you have to use your bike or car. Traffic is terrible there because of Thames Road. A lot of people are coming there with their cars and it cause the traffic.

Everyone has their own parking space. So if you are coming from outside our neighbourhood you can't find parking space easily. Traffic is terrible, I prefer to use my bike instead of the car. Other than that this is a great area for everyone! There are good schools in there. A lot of coffee shops and pubs there. So, there are so many places for everyone.
Amenities
We are very near to Thames Road. There are great pubs on this road and walking on this road was the greatest thing that I do in the morning and after work. If you walk anyway for 10 mins. You can reach the local shops and some retailers as well. If you have kids, there are some good playgrounds for them. But Thames Road is great for the attractions as well. If water is not too high you can walk very near to the Thames with your pet or kids as well.
Nice Chiswick
I love how safe it is, and there are lots to do in the area and surrounding areas. Kew Gardens is not far, either is the deer park.
Transport
Transport is good, parking is not overcrowded, a few stations and loads of buses that go further west, I haven’t seen a bus that goes east London though
Community
Good- very trendy, full of families, lots of places to go and parks to relax in where the kids can also play Bad- not much negatives about the area to be honest
