Is the London borough of Haringey a nice place to live?

This North London borough is characterful and well-connected with an abundance of  highly desirable village-style communities. Areas within this borough are diverse — while Crouch End, Highgate and Muswell Hill are some of the wealthiest in the country, areas in the east of the borough are some of the most deprived.

Harringay (not to be confused with Haringey!) is an area within the borough which takes its name from the 18th century building Harringay House, west of Green Lanes. The Guardian describes Harringay with only one downside – its price. But it’s less expensive than nearby Finsbury Park and still highly sought after.

The borough of Haringey is also famous for its authentic cuisine, with many excellent Turkish and Greek restaurants on Green Lanes.
