Dave,

I'm considering a move to Medway because it is cheap.

Are there any places that really should be avoided? I want to be in the
catchment of one of the 4 (5?) stations.

(NB: I don't just want a list of the parts which are "nice" as they are
probably as expensive as moving somewhere else that is uniformly "nice").

thanks

I was going to say the Allington Drive area of Strood! Dave may
disagree cos he lives near here.....but it's miles from the station.
To be honest, like many towns there are some dire areas and finding
somewhere that is near to the Station and is in the right school
catchment area can be challenging.
Take a look at these two examples, that are less than 500 metres
apart.
ME2 4BN This is near to the Station, but the nearby carpark has an
alcohol control order in place and there has been a lot of trouble
here in the past
ME2 3DU This is also near the Station, (about 5 mins walk), but it is
a nice quiet close, near to a good school.

The good news for Medway is that the new fast commuter services from
Strood are only 35 minutes from London St Pancras. So whilst house
prices are cheap now, I would expect that when they start to rise
again we could be in for a bit of a property boom.
My tips on places to avoid:
Anywhere with a large concentration of Social Housing. www.mhs.org.uk/
for more details. There are actually some really nice properties
dotted around, but when they are all in one place.... I think new
planning regulations try to avoid this for obvious reasons.
Anywhere where you have to drive or catch a bus to get to the station.
I lived in Hoo for 7 years and it was real pain, always having to give
the kids lifts and paying an arm a leg for a taxi if you have a late
night.

In Medway, avoid the Luton area like the plague. Even the 'near' end of
Luton Road (where Maplin is) is a bit dodgy. I used to park behind Maplin
when I went there, and someone was murdered there...although I think his
card had been marked.

Also Parkwood (on the way to Gillingham), as that's Chav central. Also
the Brompton area. And nowhere in Strood. And the area around the Delce
Road (parallel with the A229 City Way).

(this from SWMBO, who's worked in various parts of Medway for 25 years).
And taught kids from these parts...

No, don't need a school

I can't narrow the search down too much as there is limited property
available ATM. This is a "quick" fix rather than a long term plan. There
are 16 2 bed properties under 125K within half a mile of that PC and 22 for
rent at under 600.

The good news for Medway is that the new fast commuter services from
Strood are only 35 minutes from London St Pancras. So whilst house

Does it have to be Medway?

The Charing X - Hastings line is pretty civilised and gives you a choice of
Sevenoaks, Tonbridge (OK if you don't actually live anywhere near the
station) T Wells, and all the random places south of there.

That had never occurred to me. I've never commuted. Handy for the motorway
though.

It can be a bit cut off out on the peninsular, any further out than Hoo &

probably in the position of a peri-anal wart.

Different world now

the latest M25 roadworks are months old, populated with dennises


If they all drove like me there wouldn't be any jams on the M25.

Its the idiots that cause the jams, you should know geoff there is always
one when you are around.

Where is Medway anyway?

10 miles after the world ends

It's not that close to Slough...

But Wotfud is :-)

Miles away mate

about 5 hours round the M25 on a good day

Todays Tip. Go anticlockwise

Not seen the roadworks there, have you

Prior to becoming TMH I spent a large proportion of my life on the
poxy M25. I'm very glad to say I rarely ever use it now. I had a
major client in Queens Road Wotfud. Great place fro cheap vac bags
BTW. My annual mileage as a rep was 40,000 miles PA, now its about
8,000. I am a happier bunny.

Towing the TMH patented "slimline" trailer?

Can't you get roof racks for motorbikes then?

There you are - your next project!

P.s. Was that you who drifted across from one lane to another without
looking straight in front of me this afternoon ?
