Renting in Camden

What's it like to live in Camden?

Camden is iconic — the market, the music venues, the canal, Primrose Hill on a sunny day. As a rental area, it commands a premium thanks to its central location and cultural cachet. The Northern line provides quick access to the City and West End. Beyond the tourist-heavy market area, residential Camden (particularly towards Kentish Town and Primrose Hill) offers lovely tree-lined streets and a genuine community. Regent's Canal is perfect for cycling into King's Cross or east London. Expect competition — Camden flats go fast.
