A quiet area in the midst of change.
Walworth has a high violent crime rate and a high property crime rate for London.
Walworth is in the middle of gentrification, so times are changing. Young professionals are working their way into the neighborhood at a quick pace and there’s a lot of new housing coming into the area.
Walworth has an active community. There's some great shopping in smaller, independent boutiques. You’ll also find yoga studios, organic food stalls, and thrift shops.
Walworth is bordered on the north by Elephant & Castle, on the east by Bermondsey, on the south by Camberwell, and on the west by Kennington.
