There aren't "no go" areas in London, but there are areas I wouldn't go into wearing a suit and tie, or if I was a woman.https://twitter.com/standardnews/status/779321433130471425 …

anomalyuk added,
where wouldn't you go in suit and tie? whole areas or just particular estates?
main routes are OK, side streets west of Paddington I've found iffy. S. London I'd be more cautious, but that's cos I don't know it.
Actually, refreshing my memory (few years since I was in London regularly), Poplar I would have expected to be OK.
never been close to trouble in any *area* of S London, but I'm sure there are specific places which'd be dangerous
My theory is if you are "at home" in an area it gives you a confidence which deters potential predators. But that could be a delusion
