Collier Row — is it a good place to live?

Collier Row offers streets that measure quieter than the capital's average — the trade-off is the independent scene, which runs thinner here than across the city.

Overall: toward the bottom of London's range on the six things we score

Every band is relative to other London areas — a high band means quieter or greener than most of London, not quiet or green in absolute terms. How we score.

Trade-offs

Further trade-offs: everyday shops and services within a walk, which are fewer or less varied here; culture and leisure, which score toward the bottom of the London range; and schools, where measured pupil progress trails the citywide pace.

The nearest station is Romford (London Overground / Elizabeth line), a long way on foot from the area's centre — the journey to the train is a real part of daily life here.
