Hey Edgars, Warm welcome to London! I guess the main deciding factor when it comes to selecting where to live is your monthly budget. It's not only the rent but council tax, utilities and transport too. All that quickly adds up (but I'm sure ... Read More

We are relocating to London with our 3-year-old twins due to my husband's job transfer. He'll be working in Canary Wharf. I would like some advice on some family-oriented neighborhoods that are still close to dining and shopping. Also, would ...
@nytouk, I'm very tempted to suggest Primrose Hill area. Not only there are some nice high streets in the vicinity (very family orientated), it's also near to Camden Town in the event that you would like to let your hair down every now and then. :) Read More
