All about making making maximum profit at the expense of the people who will live there. Sure, it's a choice to buy, but if there is no alternative they'll get filled. Fine if part of a temporary holding strategy whilst other properties are being built, but I suspect it's not. | |

Well, that depends on which part of Barnet you're talking about of course! It's the biggest borough in London and has very, very nice areas. It also has some pretty terrible ones. Generally it's one of the most expensive places to live in the capital, with some of the best schools - QE Boys Grammer, Mill Hill school and a couple of others. I lived in High Barnet for 10 years and know it pretty well. High Barnet is very exclusive, but 1/2 mile down the road is Underhill, a very down at heal place with massive social problem. This block of soon to be flats in on the A1000 Great North Road in Whetstone, about 200m from the tube and on a straight road into the city. Whetstone is a great place, some very, very classy streets and several nice restaurants. [Post edited 28 Mar 2017 13:56]

Is it bigger than Hounslow? RKD used to work in Barnet, I'll let him describe how he was chased through the kitchen by a mad customer. | |

Again, depends where they are. Went into many and they could be grim! This particular development is old council offices so no one is being moved on or out. I'll give you that Brian Coleman is a ....., well I'd better not say because he'd sue me for libel or slander of probably both! | |

It's about twice as big as Hounslow! It takes in Edgeware, Hendon and Finchley all the way down to Hampstead. | |

Indeed, it is overwhelmingly Caucasian or at least light skinned. Relatively few black African background people, but lots of Eastern Europeans, (Greeks, Turks, etc) ever before the rush of immigration of the last few years. The area I lived was a mass of languages - which was quite a shock for a country boy like me when I first got there. | |

To be fair you are right, there are some parts which are brilliant. The girl I was seeing when I lived there had mega rich parents and she had the house the size of Kesgrave, on the same road as Cheryl Cole. Unfortunately she was a nutter. I worked and lived above The Red Lion and my experience of Barnet is based on the scum that drank between our pub and what I think was called The Kings Head. | |

Not the most prestigious pub around there! Went through a couple of reincarnations in my time that way. I'm not a big drinker, but used to go out to Arkley or Totteridge - better class of punter there! Did you gf from Camlet Way by any chance? That is one posh road! We used to play 'spot the celebrity' whenever we went along it! [Post edited 28 Mar 2017 23:08]

I can't remember the name of the area at all to be honest. I thought she was telling fibs when she spoke about the celebrities that lived near her until I saw her house! | |

Totteridge used to be seriously posh. I once saw a bare-chested Roger Moore mowing his lawn there. A very muscular gentleman he was then -about 1964ish. Very polite too; wished us a good afternoon. Mind you this was during his Saint days and pre-Bond. I expect he moved somewhere even posher when he became Bond. | | | |

If the apartments/studios were bigger they would cost more, thus forcing people to rent. At least this gives someone a foot on the ladder. Can't see the problem. If you don't like it, live out of town and commute. | |

Yes, you could live in Radlett, St Albans or Harpenden. Such cheap housing in those out-of-town places. | | | |

Or go further in to Edmonton? Personally, i don't see the issue with these places, despite feeling that the housing market is very poorly in general and designed to screw the young. At least these will be relatively cheap and who knows: if they're that bad, maybe they'll have to drop the price even more. Much better than so-called affordable housing starting at £500 grand. | |
