Moved to an area that doesn’t feel like London at all
Southeast Asian Male in early 20s. Just moved to London for a new job. I was working in Glasgow before and would visit London regularly, often staying at Hotels in Kensington/ Notting Hill. But I have never been to the “residential areas” of London. I rented a room in Stratford near West Ham Park through a family friend just by viewing the room via a video call because it was a hassle-free option. I only consulted Chatgpt, and it signals no red flag for this area. Now that I have actually moved in, I hated it the area so much it’s making me move back to the North.
Please help me suggest areas for a young professional who really loves the city life.
My criteria :
- house share
- under £1000 pcm (bill inclusive)
- preferably an area with lots of young people and culturally diverse (not people of one racial profile concentrating in the same neighborhood)
