Yep, have been in Beckenham for the past ten years.
As @Currid says, lots of good cycling opportunities with HHV and Palace, plus you’re in the lanes in 15 mins.
Public transport is great, with lines into Victoria and London Bridge/Charing Cross plus trams to Croydon and the Overground at Penge.
It is very family oriented I think, lots of young families around with all that entails. Is not everyone’s cup of tea.

Me and @andyp I believe. You're in the countryside after 15mins riding, racing at Palace (on my doorstep) and HHV also within 15 mins. Kent House 19mins to Victoria. It's pretty decent and close enough to Croydon to get there easily (17mins on tram for me) but far enough away so you have a healthy distance from Croydon!
