It's a lovely, calm area next to a beautiful canal. It's very convenient to live here because there is a great connection to public transport (Mile End station) and many shops are nearby. Besides, it's very close to large green spaces, like Victoria Park and Mile End Park

It is a muslim area. Much better than East-Ham. It is a calm place but African teenagers attacked my friend. They cut her bag from her shoulder. Took her all money, value. They had knifes. Calm people, a lot of Asian restaurant and take away. A lot of drug dealer with cheap, good quality drugs. The streets are disgusting but not so horrible like eg.: Woolwich. Muslim men don't hurt the ladies on the street.
