The worst places to live in South London
Welcome to Penge! Oh? All you see is a festering pile of sewage? Well what did you think it’d be? A decent settlement with actual humans? HA! If you’ve just arrived on the Overground, board back on the train. Seriously. Everyone freaks out about Area 51, they should be talking about SE20. Don’t say I […]

The gentile residents of St Johns would have you believe their little enclave is a suburban paradise, nestled between the affluent neighbourhoods of Greenwich to the north, Blackheath to the east, Brockley to the south and Telegraph Hill to the west. Don’t buy this bullsh*t – it’s part of the puss-filled borough of Lewisham, so […]

As you turn the corner from a modern busy and energetic area of London named Brixton with great transport links to the rest of this glorious city, there is a place under a bridge called Loughborough junction, which is to say at the very least one of the most unglamorous and unsophisticated areas I’ve ever […]

This is about what it’s like to live in Sidcup with the notorious Blackfen Road outside. For starters if you have never had the chance to visit NASCAR in the USA with all the thrills and spills of drivers trying to **** themselves with no brakes for glory? then don’t waste your money going to […]
Want a fun, fulfilled, family friendly day out? Do not come to Tooting! Never dull If you however do feel like making a tenacious trip to Tooting (god forbid) you’ll be greeted with some of the most incredible sights South London has on offer. From the groups of teenagers in full adidas that make you […]
So, I live in Bexleyheath. Growing up it used to be an okay town, it wasn’t too bad and there wasn’t enormous amounts of crime (not from my memory at least). I am now 20, and this area has completely changed. It is the hive of all villainy in the galaxy. Yobs, gangsters, roadmen and […]
Clem attlee court, a council estate off of the rubbish laden north end road. The place is full of wannabe boxers and gangsters most of whom are skinny, scruffy and who couldn’t punch their way out of a wet paper bag. The teenagers hang around in tracksuits spouting colourful language at vulnerable passers by. They […]

I’m amazed that there isn’t an article for this on here yet! Ah Ba-a-sea (as we all called it, a local knows it has 2 t’s in the name but neither are used): the home of my formative years in the 80’s. I’ve not been back here since meeting up with a young lady for […]
I think Brockley 10 years ago would have been a markedly different place: one bereft of the beards, the flat whites and the numerous restaurants offering an approximation of hipster haute cuisine. Now you can’t get on the overground without having your skin exfoliated by the bristles of the creatively bearded, find a “normal” coffee […]

Ah Whitton, a once quiet, subtle and small area situated slyly between Hounslow and Twickenham has now become a blight on the surrounding area; even next to Hounslow. You see, after having spent the last 5-6 years living, going to school and generally going out around Whitton, I have experienced the first-hand deterioration of this […]
The other reviews about Sutton seem to have been written by teenagers who have had poor personal experiences of living in Sutton- they have not given a true and fair idea of what the place is actually like; quite the reverse! In fact, it is generally a very pleasant town within Greater London on the […]
Where to start with north cheam….hmm. first off let me start by saying that i spent the first ten years of my life growing up here in the early eighties, playing on the road with my friends after school etc etc and it was a generally nice place. Something has gone seriously wrong with this […]
