If you are only just considering your move into North East London then you should know about the wonderful region you have chosen to make your new home. In 2008, the newly revised London Plan split the region into five sub-regions: North East, North, South East, South West and West. The areas that make North East London are Newham, Barking & Dagenham, Redbridge, Havering, Tower Hamlets, Waltham Forest and the main City of London. Its total population is 1.4 million people with 900,000 people working here. The postal codes of the area are E1W, E1-E18, E20, E77, and E98.
There are two metropolitan centres in North East London – Romford and Ilford, but there are also other major centres in Barking, East Ham, Canary Wharf, Stratford and Walthamstow. The region is undergoing much regeneration, specifically at Lower Lea Valley, Canary Wharf, the City Fringe, Stratford, Ilford, the Royal docks and London Riverside. North East London is expected to become a real hotspot because of the 2012 Summer Olympic and Paralympic games.
Despite the increase of interest, there are still many affordable places to live such as Dulwich, Crystal Palace, Brixton, Clapton, Hackney, Bethnal Green, Walthamstow, South Woodford and Leystone. Whitechapel, Isle of Dogs and Docklands are more expensive but worth it if you want to treat yourself.
There is much to do and to see in North East London. There is the Whitechapel Gallery which exhibits both contemporary pieces as well as classic retrospectives and has featured Picasso’s Guernica and other famous works. There are plenty of theatres including Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch, Stratford Circus and Theatre Royal Stratford East, which is home to the Theatre Workshop company. There are plenty of museums to visit too, such as Ragged School Museum, the V&A Museum of Childhood, Upminster Windmill, the museum of London Docklands and William Morris Gallery.
