Hi all. This is my first reddit post ever , so please be kind. I'm ready to buy my first flat , I'm a single applicant and my budget is limited, so far it seems that I can afford properties located around Croydon.
Specifically one flat , minutes walking from west Croydon Station, which I really like and is quite affordable.
I'm just a bit anxious about West Croyond as I always heard the area is dangerous. I have a little boy who will be living with me and I don't want him to grow up in a rough area.
For contest , I'm a woman and I have been living in London for 10+ years , I am not originally from the UK. Currently renting in South East London.
Anyone from West Croydon here who can give me an advice or some insights ?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you : )
Hi all, I left my phone on the 466 bus earlier in the week and hoped to ring the South Croydon bus garage (save going there in person) to see if it had been handed in. I've tried a few numbers but no joy, wondered if anyone on here has ever had to call them and if they'd be happy to share the number?

They're new residential towers apparently, at 101 George St. These lights shine right at me and are incredibly bright even from a mile away. The tower has lights for aircraft already so it's probably not that. They're not on every night and the tower was up for months before these appeared anyway. Can't see where they're coming from in the daylight pic but it looks like they're shining throughout the top few levels, mostly out of one side with stray beams blasting out the other so they might be housed inside the building. They seem to be directed more or less horizontally so not stadium lights, that was my only other thought.
It's not really a problem for me but it's making me so curious!
My camera's ten years old but I did my best with the night photo.
