South Norwood - nice?

[bloonoo]

Hi all

Looking to buy a property and can't afford anything in ED/nearby. Lots of properties in Croydon and South Norwood - anyone got any opinions on it? South Norwood looks good currently from google earth view, looks like nice country park near Norwood Junction and obviously fast train into LB, but I know nothing else about the area - anyone got any experiences?

Thanking you

There is an existing thread here, but it's quite short

ah thanks, not too bothered about primary schools etc as 26 and no plans to pop out a kid any time soon, but thread has given me some ideas.
