I live 2 miles from Golders Green. It's a very mixed area with a still large and vibrant Jewish community, and loads of Jewish shops and restaurants, but it has a wide mix of other ethnic communities, too. There are some very swish and expensive areas (the nearer you get to Hampstead, the more upscale it gets), but also a lot of cheap rented accommodation, which means that there are also a lot of young flat sharers, and a steady influx of residents new to London
I wouldn't call Golder's Green suburban - it has a North-West London postcode, and is only 7 miles from Charing Cross. Well maybe one of the closest suburbs to the centre! It's a wonderful part of London, full of life and only steps away from Hampstead Heath, London's most beautiful open space.

Well at one time was a predominantly Jewish area. I think most have now moved out and most properties are owned by Asian people, this is typical of a lot of London suburbs.

Martin G you're one to be talking about big hats and silly beards.
Seriously though, I think it used to be a Jewish area. Who owns houses there now is difficult to say. Those who can afford London prices, I'd guess.

There is still a large Jewish population in the area, of 29.6%. This is still more than the Asian population.
