Hello Londoners, I'll be looking to move out soon and, looking online, there are a few recommendations to where would suit me best. I'm from East London originally but now live in Essex. I've looked around, and it's tough to find comparisons for the different areas of London online, so all I have left is to ask you lovely people for your advice! I'm a creative, so quirky areas are my go-to's. The top of my list atm consists of Stoke Newington, Shoreditch, and Hackney. What are your views on these three areas? Crime rates? General vibe? Any odd things I should know? Cheers in advance! 😁
My husband and I are both looking for raid groups to join. Shift workers so have plenty of free time 🙃
Basically, as above. I'm in my mid-20s, will be moving to London shortly and will be working in Southwark. I'm really into indie music and vintage clothes, and while I have visited the aforementioned areas in the past I'm not sure where would be best to live? I just want to live somewhere where there are other young people, where there are always things to do, where it's a bit alternative and where a Tesco or tube station is never far away! Both areas appeal to me but I don't know them near well enough to know the pros and cons, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, I'm really into running so if anyone could say whether one might have better running routes than the other that'd be great!

... just thought you’d like to know.
What are the places you’ll do anything to steer clear of in town?
Three places in London I’ll actively avoid, no matter the cost. Am I late? Don’t care, I’ll find another route. Has my granny tripped in one of these and needs urgent assistance? Too bad.
-
Oxford Street. All of it.
-
That bit outside the Sealife Centre/ Shrek experience and London Eye. *shudder
-
The tributary streets that run into Leicester Square with the discount ticket shops and the Angus Steakhouse. *dry wretch.
