    When I first moved to London - 2004, I lived off £16k per year and had my own flat in zone 1 central london near Spitalfields, it wasn't a ex-council house. It was a high ceiling modern townhouse apartment block. Rent was 160pw. Could walk to work.

    Then Spitalfields got redeveloped and turned into the hipster/alcoholics vintage smelly clothing ghetto that it is today and rent rocketed. Price of a bagel went up.

    Now I live zone 2, NW, rent £220pw for own 1LDK and the pleasure of being surrounded by uncivilised, unfashionable, unloving, uncaring immigrants cavorting at all hours of the night and living off benefits.

    Looking to flee this country asap.

    • Cant believe you could live on 16k and pay 670pm for a flat, you must be good at scrimping!joshtrix
