Breh's all the other people are moving to Luton, Dagenham and Essex lol and Barking loool

All my fam who used to live in Homerton and Clapton in Hackney back in the day live in Dagenham, Barking now loool

I think some people moved Enfield too, I had a uncle who moved to Enfield a few years ago from Hackney Wick.

A few other people I know went to Milton Keynes and Kent too.

Milton Keynes :damn: They must love roundabouts because that's all they have. Kent is like chav central, Luton is just a dump. Essex always been popular. Enfield is borders.

Thanks for the moneyweek hookup, never heard of it.

Breh every day I wish I was born 10 years earlier, these greedy Buy To Landlords fukked it up for everyone. My aunt bought a flat in East London for 88,000k in 1993 and now it's worth 340,000. SMH the baby boomers ate good because all their homes are worth a shyt ton now but those of us trying to get on the ladder. :wow:

Judging my advice I've gotten so far I'm either gonna find the last of the good in East London or head West. :wow:

Gonna be honest, I'm not an expert on property buying because I live in rented accommodation.

If you want somewhere in East London easily commutable to the city you can try Stratford although that's probably expensive now. Walthamstow is a bit meh but the Victoria line takes you to Oxford Circus and those parts. Chingford is a pretty decent area. It's mainly quiet, but it's just down the road from Edmonton once you hit the A406.

If you want Enfield, you can try the Bush Hill Park area because the overhead train takes you straight to Liverpool Street. One of the stops is not far from where I live and I can get to LS in 25 minutes easily. The trains run every 15 minutes and there's rarely ever a problem with them.

Barnet is still nice, that's where a lot of people want to flee because it's leafy suburbia and very scenic as well as spacious and quiet and you still have all the facilities you need. Primrose Hill, Swiss Cottage, Hampstead are the GOAT North London areas, but unless you're making serious bank, forget it.

If it's not the place I live in now, I can't see myself ever buying in London personally, especially with the economy the way it is. My sister lives in Cheshunt and she's struggling to pay her mortgage. I'm interested in Hertfordshire and the outer areas as far as buying, but I'm holding fire as to what I want to do in the near future as far as moving to a new place. Maybe when I settle down with a new woman and my career progresses I'll know for sure. I might just buy a property abroad and continue to rent here, who knows. But unless I can put down a huge deposit, I wouldn't even think about buying a place right now.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Watching the video dude is a moron, people think shyt is sweet out in London, yeah you don't have to worry about being shot or killed like here in the states but they will lay hands on you something serious.

I'd even go as far as to say the average Londoner's hand game > Average people from Major US cities

Cheers breh, I keep completely forgetting about the West London side of the central line, that would get me to Liverpool Street, I'll look into those sides, the commute is one straight train too.

LOL my boy told me Wood Green is like Harlem, I remember Palmers Green and Bounds Green being good areas when I was younger.

I'll look in Islington + Camden. :salute:

Wood Green is worse than Harlem in the sense that its not central. At least Harlem is in Manhattan, right next to everything. I guess that's why they're gentrifying the shyt outta Harlem. But Harlem in its hood prime was probably a lot worse than Wood Green.

My best friend's gf used to live in Wood Green so I used to go up there quite often. I remember her brother got his snot box rocked one day. He came out of a store and a young kid came up to him and asked him for a cigarette, cause he was smoking.

Kid said "Hey, you got a cigarette?" Her brother said "I do, but not for you". The kid punched him in the face :laugh:

I never had problems up there tho but if u look for problems up there, you will definitely find them.

is it true that a lot of the middle class in the UK receive government assistance because it's so expensive to live?
