Hey to whoever’s reading this,

So basically I have a passion for dance and I am looking to set up a dance group/troupe for likeminded individuals in their 20s-30s like myself. Dance will incorporate contemporary/street/urban and various other styles. Must have a passion for dance. Croydon or surrounding areas. Male or female any race or age so long as your creative, dedicated and like to have fun!

For more details or register your interest please email me

It's a great place to live, on the outskirts of the Crystal Palace triangle, has loads of green spaces on the doorstep from sailing or fishing on South Norwood Lakes; woodland walking through Grange Park or a short walk to Crystal Palace Park, I'm spoilt for choice. Also commuting into London couldn't be easier. Fast trains from Norwood Junction (zone 4) takes 15 mins or Crystal Palace Overground (zone 3) saves me money on the cost of my ticket. Transports links are great with bus route close by taking me all over London from Clapham, Battersea to Elephant and Castle to name a few, also there are non stop buses from my door step to Russell Square and back. I could go on, and on but will stop with mentioning that it has great schools, and is also in the catchment area for some of the top secondary schools in England (St Olaves just to mention one). It's a great place to live.

Rapidly becoming an alternative to the silicon roundabout.

west croydon and thornton heath are not great. south croydon and east croydon are pleasant areas with very affordable unjustly maligned due to an exagerated reputation for crime based upon west croydon and a need for town centre regeneration. there are some very nice areas which with a new westfields and other surrounding central redevelopment are already looking very good value.

South Croydon is historically the nice side of town and nothing like West Croydon. It is actually a pleasant leafy suburban area for the most part, with good restaurants and pubs. Prices are lower than the area actually merits due to reputational issues with the Croydon name. Despite what some might say the reality is that Croydon doesn't even make the top 10 for dangerous London boroughs.

If you can see past the reputation then you can live on the nice side of town in a nice house for less than the cost of a studio flat in more dangerous boroughs closer into London, and with excellent fast train links get into Central London very quickly. Provided the Westfield centre goes ahead it should make a very good comparative investment too.

Croydon is much better than it's reputation. Have a look for yourself.

Hey!

Hi Paul, tried e mailing you but can't get through why don't you see if you can get through to me,

William Stimson was my great great great granddad born in beddington lane my name is Paul Stimson and we all are still in croydon contact me at

South Croydon is absolutely fine with some very nice leafy residential areas. West Croydon not so great and probably best avoided. Shirley, areas of Purley etc very pleasant indeed. If you choose well you can get a very nice house in a very pleasant safe residential area with easy access to London train links for less than the price of a shoe box in a much more dangerous area at the other end of the line.

Don't ever move to west croydon. Everyone thinks it's ok here because they drink and shop here all the time but when you live here it's not safe.

In fact I just saw an old lady die about an hour ago because a guy was trying to get away from a guy with a knife and knocked her down.

And stuff like this happens everyday here.

Don't come here

I have lived in south croydon for 9 years and really like it. There are nice pubs are lots of restaurants. There are also many parks. Good luck with your move!

Kick boxing classes on Thursdays start at 8pm. Normally finish around 9.15pm.

Great classes. :-)

Phoenix Martial Arts Centre in Ledbury Road, South Croydon is great. Myself and my son have been training there for a number of years now and I am really pleased with the results.

The instructors are very welcoming and they are patient with the kids. As well as great skills my son has learnt great discipline. They even get to compete for the club across the country if they are up for it.

I'd definately recommend Phoenix.

Check out there website. www.pmakickboxing.com.

Well worth it.

The pub is now called the Porter and Sorter

There are no jobs or prospects in Croydon, with 500 people chasing every vacancy. The town is dirty, souless, and dated with grim dull 1960's buildings. Parts like West Croydon, Broad Green, New Addington, Portland Road, South Norwood High Street Gordon Crescent off Morland Road are violent and infested with crime. Glad I got out after watching the towns decline before my eyes over a space of 25 years.

Try Debenhams in Centrale

William Stimson was born in Beddington, Croydon in 1798, he had 7 children (5 boys) his children were also prolific breeders averaging 5 children each so there must be quite a few Stimsons dotted arround, some of which may still be in the Croydon area. It is not the most common of surnames so where are they all?
