EC1V 7NS Neighborhood (Friend Street)

Hi All,

Is EC1V 7NS (Friend Street) a good place to stay with 2 teens. We have booked an Airbnb in that area but are concerned with certain stats related to that location. Please let me know if I need to change my location. Thanks!!

south of the Angel, just east of Sadler's Wells for those wondering where the postcode is

Between St John Street and Goswell Road

What "stats" are you concerned about? Have you looked at Friend Street on Google Street View? The street appears almost entirely residential with modernized flats and permit only parking. Seems expensive and quiet. Not sure how far you will have to go to find stores ore restaurants.

Not a safety concern in the slightest. I like it around there. One of the best chippys in London (Kennedy's) on Goswell Road. Angel is great. It's a very civilised area to stay, without being swamped by the super-rich or a lot of other tourists.
