Family-friendly neighbourhoods in London
White Hills tops the list for families in London. About 35% of residents there are kids aged 0 to 14, more than double the citywide share of 16.3%. Pond Mills and Southdale aren't far behind, both with roughly three in ten residents under 15.
Family-friendly London leans toward houses, not condos. Just over half of homes citywide, 53%, are single-detached, and 62.2% are owner-occupied. That mix of space and stability is part of what draws families to these pockets in the first place.
Median incomes across the top ten range widely, from $53,200 in Pottersburg to $98,000 in Northdale, so family-friendly doesn't always mean expensive.
