We live just off Vicarage Road, bought a wreck 8 years ago for dirt cheap.
Love the area. Loads of parks big and small, marshes, Olympic Park and Epping Forest nearby, many LTNs making residential roads feel peaceful, good schools nearby (Willowbrook in particular), lower house prices than E17 and further away from the A12 hellscape than a lot of the roads with more grand housing stock towards E11.

thanks, sounds kind of what i'm expecting. I've walked down Francis Road lots and as you say, it's not that busy, quite a few places have been and gone but hopefully it's building up a sustainable core now.
I'm trying to imagine what i'd miss that I can walk to now.
