Bar t.b. how many people in this thread are under 27?I don't want to lump everyone together, but aren't lot of these "London isn't what it used to be" comments based on people's changes in age and lifestyle?
It is not that. Everyone accepts the only constant is change itself but the change has been a very deliberate one that is tantamount to social cleansing.

London is amazing, and yes for lots of it you need money. I don't think it has ever been cheap. If you want to have a family and the trappings that come along with that like safe outdoor space, good schools, etc. then the housing situation makes it prohibitive for most.
But there are still tonnes of amazing things going on for free if you're motivated. I'm sure there must still be a great music scene, wicked house parties, etc. it's just (like me) you're probably a bit old and don't get invited to any.
