What's it like to live in Acton?
Acton has become one of west London's most practical rental choices. The Elizabeth line station at Acton Main Line has added to already strong transport links (Central, District, and Piccadilly lines all serve different parts of Acton). The area is residential and multicultural, with a good selection of restaurants reflecting its diverse community. South Acton is being regenerated with major new housing developments. Acton won't win any "coolest neighbourhood" awards, but for well-connected, affordable west London living, it's hard to argue with.
