Living In The City of London

The City of London, also known as the Square Mile, is historically the financial centre of London and its boundaries have remained largely unaltered since the Middle Ages. In the past, the City emptied at weekends but, thanks to the trend for urban living in London, the area has become repopulated.

City of London estate agents have on their books older properties, such as the famous Barbican post-war development, as well as newer properties, with mixed developments popular as retailers look to move into the area. Living in the City of London gives residents easy access to the rest of the metropolitan area.
