Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Moving to Turnpike Lane/Ducketts Common
Hi everyone, we are thinking to move into a flat situated just next to Ducketts Common and was wondering if the area is safe enough to have a family? We are in our early pregnancies and if we take this flat then we will be having our baby in that flat. At our viewing we ran into quite a lot of drunk/toxicated people in the area and the reviews were reading are a bit disheartening about the park as it accumulates lot of drunks and druggies.
Any feedback would be appreciated as we really love the flat and the location.
Thanks,
Luca

I wouldn't say Willoughby is materially different from living on other ladder 'rungs'. A little more traffic but better access to park/tube etc.

I think you will be fine. I have brought up a child in this area and while he was in the pram and buggy we would go further afield to Alexandra Palace and Priory Park. Once he was a bit older we would also use the playground in Ducketts Common. You kind of need common sense like everywhere else and the tube end of Ducketts Common isn't very nice which is typical to most other station surroundings. On the flip side, you have the tube and shopping close by.
