Your rent also depends on your postcode. SW3 (Chelsea) is £3,500. But E15 (Stratford) is £1,600. Same city, different planets.
Fun fact: The cheapest postcode in London is SE18 (Woolwich). You can get a one-bedroom for £1,100. The trade-off? You’re a 45-minute train ride from central London. Pick your sacrifice.
And then there’s WC2 (Covent Garden). A studio there runs £2,800. But you’re above a shop that sells £12 cupcakes. Worth it? Probably not.
