> East London is poor? Isn't Hackney East London?


Hackney is pretty poor: http://www.hackneygazette.co.uk/news/shocking_child_poverty_map_of_london_shows_hackney_is_third_worst_affected_area_in_the_uk_1_1176263

Don't get me wrong, I know that any money in these areas is definitely a recent thing, I was just surprised to hear that people still think of E London as "poor". I mean there are still loads of poor areas in E London, but I thought the current image of Hackney and even Stratford would have glossed over all that a bit.

I guess they mainly interviewed people from north and west london!


To be honest most of east london (anything east of canary wharf and hackney) seems to be pretty grim and scruffy, with property prices to match. And the majority of SE London is just characterless and unloveable IMO, with a few exceptions.

South East London contains two genuine villages, Dulwich and Blackheath, numerous conservation areas which look the same today as they did in Victorian times, Brockley is a great example of this. Our problem in this corner of the city is poor transport connections. Overground is changing that perception of isolationism, but it will take many years and until then the only areas to benefit will be the areas of zone 2 on or near an overground station and preferably close to an SW postcode - fortunately we in ED have both of these things in our favour.

    • The big difference, other than increasingly flaking paint, seems to be graffiti. The question is, will that/ can it be controlled?
    • I took back my 🤣 because I think the idea is unworkable expensive and would produce little result.  There seems to be people in the office next to the toilet but I don’t think they leave the office. I’m not sure what they do there.  The toilets have been in a disgusting state for months and months with many promises to repair they are not functional and they invite vandalism. I shall  try to add a couple of photos. The council doesn’t care why should we?
    • There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
    • Its almost the same as Grove Vale School , now Goose Green School.
