Lavender hill - good or bad area?
Discussion
It's another one of those London areas of great little restaurants and bars right next to dodgy council estates.
Very expensive if you want to buy there and only 4 miles from Central London, it really depends on what part of Lavender Hill you'll be living in?
I'd say it's nicer down the Clapham Junction end and gets rougher as you head up towards Vauxhall.
At the Clapham end you'll have the station for London and anywhere South Coast and South-West plus you won't be far from Northcote Road which is like a village just off Wandsworth Common East-Side.
Just my experience of living just up the road from there.

Sorry - I don't mean rough, but Pimlico is more downmarket than it's neighbours and doesn't have a great name. One of those area's that's forever been tipped as about to come up. Still pretty pricey though!
Trying to gauge this out - Is Lavender Hill a pretty respectable and decent area, but nothing special in the same way as Clapham? Would you shudder if your 21 year old daughter was going to live in Lavender Hill?

no, most of my friends live in that area and are mostly the posh public school girl type Trying to gauge this out - Is Lavender Hill a pretty respectable and decent area, but nothing special in the same way as Clapham?
