I am thinking about moving to the UK..?

Question

And I was wondering where a great area was to live. I am looking at London, but they have no many different areas, and I am so confused. I am artistic, bohemian and I want to be a writer, where is the ideal place for me? I am also 18 years of age, so I am looking for a younger set.

Answer 1

There's been a big North vs South London divide for as long as I can remember.  People from both sides are as passionate about their half as each other and will debate their merits till the cows come home.  As a result, most of the cool people have started living out East.  For artistic, bohemian... try Hoxton.  Not too sure about the younger set there though.  Plenty of 40 year olds dressing like yoofs...

Answer 2

i take it your American?

be aware that any Citizen of the UK and EU is before you in the pecking order of jobs and you will only find employment if you are filling a postion or skill that nobody else in the EU can do

because of the high amount of immigration to the UK, the government have been forced to adopt a points system, and anyone who is not European will find it very difficult to gain a work permit and residency here in the UK, it's all down to the fact that we are running out of Jobs and houses for people because we are only a small island

the only way you can be sure of finding work is to be transfered through a compnay you are already employed with.

it's the same situation with UK citizens wanting to Emmigrate to the US, which we are currently on a list of nations that are not allowed to apply for immigration.

Avoid London. It's a crime infested, expensive h**l-hole!
