Bromley has been ranked the happiest borough in southeast London, as indicated by a survey measuring community pride, safety, and overall satisfaction among residents. It stands sixth among the 32 London boroughs and is particularly noted for its plentiful green spaces, including Crystal Palace Park and High Elms Country Park. The area is popular with families, boasting top-rated schools, lower crime rates, and a community-oriented atmosphere. Numerous recreational facilities cater to families, cementing Bromley's reputation as a desirable place to live.
Bromley is London's greenest borough, with more parkland than anywhere else in the city. Crystal Palace Park stands out with its dinosaur trail, boating lake and maze, all of which are a hit with families and runners alike. High Elms Country Park offers woodland walks and nature trails, while Norman Park hosts weekend football and fitness groups. You've also got Kelsey Park in Beckenham, complete with waterfalls and ducks, and Jubilee Country Park for quiet, dog-friendly strolls. It's the kind of borough where green space isn't a bonus – it's built in.
Bromley has long been a favourite for families looking to settle down, and was even named as one of the most family-friendly boroughs earlier this year by Making Moves London. Top-rated schools include Newstead Wood School for Girls and St Olave's Grammar, both of which are some of the highest-performing in the country. There's also Langley Park School for Boys and Bullers Wood for Girls, plus a strong mix of primaries like Bickley and Pickhurst.
