<p><font color="#000000" size="1"><b><font size="2">A guide to the neighbourhood </font></b></font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000">A mixture of wealth, street markets and poverty (it's the country's 17th most deprived borough), people who live in Camden know that it is the liveliest place to be on the planet. From the monied green swards of Hampstead Heath to the sometimes threatening nitty-gritty of Kings Cross, this is a London village that has it all.</font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000"> As much of a melting pot as any other part of London, there are people from Africa, the Caribbean, all parts of Asia and Turkey plus large Jewish and Irish communities - not to mention a preponderance of residents from media-land. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000">Sadly, if you're thinking of buying a property round here, deep pockets are essential. The days when bohemian types were moving to the Borough because property was cheap, or at least cheaper than elsewhere in London, are decades gone. Here's a quick rundown of the Borough, area by area starting from the south. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000"><b>Holborn and Bloomsbury</b> <br>
Home to the British Museum and London University, the Georgian Terraces here are for the wealthy. The area around Kings Cross is different - a mixture of no-man's land and council housing, though some desirable warehouse properties have been opening up recently and the neighbourhood will be transformed in around five years time when a major regeneration project has been completed. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000"><b>Camden Town</b> <br>
The continually mushrooming Camden markets dominate the centre of Camden, but get off the main drag and you'll find some beautiful homes which tend to be occupied by successful media types who can't quite afford Hampstead - sometimes a stone's throw from less-than-salubrious council blocks. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#000000"><b>Kentish Town</b> <br>
Though it has undoubtedly gone upmarket in the last decade, Kentish Town is less posh than Camden to the south and a lot less posh than it's northern neighbour, Hampstead. To the west, Gospel Oak is an enclave of council housing - where there may be the occasional bargain for the adventurous. Expensive Dartmouth Park is full of lovingly restored Victorian houses: pebble dash is not welcome here.</font></p> <p><font color="#000000" size="1"><b><font size="2">The cost in Camden </font></b></font></p>
