Used to be a nice place, now crime is getting higher, and nobody cares as usual. Definitely not a safe place, plenty of roberies attempts from people with bikes etc...

Those identifying as of Bangladeshi, Pakistani and some Black ethnicities are more prevalent. Europeans born in a overseas non-EU countries make up more of the lower proportion of residents identifying as White. Few residents are very old (85+). Employment in distribution, hotels and restaurants is more common than elsewhere in the Supergroup.

Family-oriented residents, concentrated in multi-ethnic neighbourhoods throughout most of London. Many residents identify as Black African and many families have children. Employment is across the labour market, apart from professional or managerial occupations.
Many families in these neighbourhoods have young children. Housing is principally in the social rented sector, in terraced or semi-detached units. While over-all residential densities are low, overcrowding is also prevalent locally.

Numbers identifying as of Chinese, Indian or White ethnicity are below average. Levels of proficiency in English are below average. Levels of separation or divorce and incidence of disability are both above average. Education is typically limited to Level 1, 2, or apprenticeship qualifications.
