Watch out for
- This is a very large outer-London borough, so conditions vary a lot by town centre and suburb.
- There are no Tube stations in Bromley, so trips into central London usually rely on rail, Tramlink, or buses.
- Some areas around town centres can feel busier at night than the leafy residential parts.
- Check the exact neighborhood if you want easy late-night walking access.
- Evidence for crime and street-level atmosphere is limited at borough level, so the safety ratings are conservative.
