What locals say about CR0
“I have lived here all my life and I love Croydon because it has great transport links that allow you to get to central London in less than half an hour, as well as being so close to the Surrey countryside. It's like having the best of both worlds. ”
Kelly
“Croydon is back on trend. Not only is it the discovery place of fashion's darlings, Moss and Campbell, but it's perfectly positioned with great transport links in and out of London, especially for those quick getaways via Gatwick. Croydon has had polarising press in the past, however new, affordable developments in the area have brought in excitement and with it the balance of family and professional silhouettes. It also boasts one of the oldest markets to date (Surrey St. Market) and is planted with energetic green parks (e.g. Lloyd's Park). Finally, the investment of Westfield shopping centre will position Croydon to lead amongst other fashion forward towns.”
John
“Because of Surrey Street Market to get fresh fruits and vegetables.”
