bit late now i guess bit its not as bad as people make out these days
brixton has had LOADS of money invested in the area thats helped to sort it out and i used to work at the office opposite there and ive NEVER had issues in brixton
infact i was about to buy a house there 2 months ago,,,,, just cause its quite a nice area these days
all this talk about cars not being there,,,,, if you go behind the police station theres a pub that the old bill drink it ( opposite the house i was gonna buy too but i backed out

) and theres a multi story carpark next door to that too but the REAL problem with brixton is the fact it bottle necks where the shops are and can take a hour to drive up to so train IS the quickest way there,,,,, means you can have a few beers too
but as said ive been brixton a few times and the REAL part where the rep comes from aint where the station/academey is
as for walthamstow/tottenham
thrush you need to see other areas mate,,,,, as harlesden is the ONLY area i shit my self in when it gets dark,,,,, everywhere else is cool tbh but then i also ive in finsbury park in the poor end of it ( read over looking highrise flats)
btw pukka venue
