For the second year running Bexley comes out as the most affordable for its local residents. In second place is Bromley, with Greenwich a close third. Tower Hamlets makes its first entrance in the top ten (last year in 5 Barking and 12th slot), replacing Hillingdon, which is now in 14th place. 6 Redbridge Dagenham 9 Tower Hamlets 9.7% 10.1% 9.4% House price to earnings ratio % 4 Havering 1 Bexley 8.17 9.0% 2 Bromley 8.79 3 Greenwich 8.91 4 Havering 9.00 5 Barking and Dagenham 9.43 6 Redbridge 9.75 7 Kingston upon Thames 9.88 8 Croydon 10.07 9 Tower Hamlets 10.12 10 Sutton 10.35 House price to earnings ratio 18 (%) 16 14 12 1 Bexley 10 8.2% 8 7 Kingston upon Thames 3 Greenwich 6 9.9% 8.9% 4 2 10 Sutton 10.3% 2 Bromley 0 8.8% Brent Ealing Sutton Barnet Bexley Enfield Merton Harrow Bromley Islington Camden Croydon Lambeth Hackney Newham Havering Haringey Hounslow Lewisham Hillingdon Redbridge Southwark Greenwich 8 Croydon Wandsworth Tower Hamlets Tower Ham. & Fulham Waltham Forest Waltham 10.1% Kens. & Chelsea Kens.

Havering has the largest percentage of open space being home to many parks such as Raphael Park, Hylands Park and Upminster Park. Upminster Golf Club is also located in Havering. Richmond upon Thames comes in at third and is well known for Richmond Park and Kew Gardens to name a few; a large part of the borough is designated as part of the Metropolitan Green Belt. Although, unsurprisingly we don’t find any inner London boroughs in this top ten, there are many oases of calm to be found in the city centre, not least, Hyde Park, Regent’s Park and Kensington Gardens.

Unsurprisingly Westminster, which includes the famous shopping destinations 86% of Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street has the highest Good quality retail had a ‘strong positive’ number of shops.

The towers of today are so far removed from the much maligned council blocks of the ‘60s. Designed by starchitects, they come with a plethora of amenities and other benefits. The tallest tower in London is the Shard, at over 1,000 feet. The tallest residential tower in London is Berkeley’s The Tower, One St George’s Wharf. However, at ‘just’ 49 storeys, it will soon be overtaken by another Berkeley tower – South Quay Plaza and The Landmark Pinnacle. Also just coming out of the ground, we have the Spire London. Although it has fewer floors than South Quay Plaza and the Landmark, at 771 ft, it will be Western Europe’s tallest residential building.
