What a wonderful place. Why?

- It's an easy commute to London by train - Victoria in under 20 min, London Bridge in under 15 min. Plenty of other London stations especially in the City, and in double-quick time. Better than the tube.

- Beautiful houses with gardens are in plentiful supply and are cheaper than anywhere else in London. Fact.

- Westfield thinks it's so fab that they are spending millions upon millions of cash to update the town centre. Westfield know their shizzle.

Most people who do not know the delights of Croydon speak ill of it. This is because they have heard other people slag it off and they think they must repeat what they hear. That's fine. We don't want their kind in Croytopia. Don't tell them how brilliant it is or they'll all want to move there.

Lovely, visually stunning town with beautiful buildings ranging from Victorian grandeur to 21st century ubercool slick. Croydon is a cultured town, strong on the arts with a museum, theatres, art house cinema and art gallery.

AWESOME TOWN, 15 MINUTES FROM CENTRAL LONDON, WHICH IS EVERY INCH A GREAT CITY IN ITS OWN RIGHT. CROYDON HAS A GREAT ART SCENE WITH GREAT PLACES LIKE THE FAIRFIELD HALLS, WHERE THE BEATLES ONCE PLAYED; AND THE CROYDON CLOCK TOWER CENTRE, WHICH FAMOUSLY HOSTED AN EXHIBITION OF PICASSO PAINTINGS.

IN ADDITION, CROYDON'S ALREADY EXCELLENT SHOPPING FACILITIES ARE ABOUT TO GET A WHOLE LOT BETTER STILL WITH A £1 BILLION WESTFIELD CENTRE.

Croydon has had a bad name.
It's getting better.
The pikeys are moving to Bromley,
Where they belong.
It has bettr shops than most places.
So dont complain.

The greatest fuckin place ever. Shits on other London Boroughs like Bromley, Sutton and Lewisham.

A quaint town located in Bristol Township PA. Currently the recepient of a 14 million dollar stimulis package going to wards the train station, main intersection, curbs landscaping and other emneties that will improve the overal curb appeal of the current "white trash" feel of the 13 / Newportville rd intersection. Croydon residents are often refereed to as "croydenites". In the past it has not been a polite name, rather a derogetory name intended to insult your enemy or friend during heated exchanges. Croydon has two parts "New Croydon" and "Old Croydon" . New is less trashy where old is very trashy. If you are a yuppie, real estate is reasonable, trans to the city is convenient and property investments are sure to be a big win with the gentrification of Croydon station and sourounding areas. I might add it is a very dog friendly town.
