A myriad of street markets which attract approximately 100,000 people during the weekends, buzzing local pubs, legendary music venues and futuristic stores: this is Camden Town. Diverse and unique by nature, this district is definitely a place worth exploring when looking for flats to rent in London. Located northwest of the city, Camden Town is a former residential area. In the 1970s, it started housing open-air street markets of all kinds, becoming a great shopping spot in London. There are six famous markets in Camden Town: Inverness Street market, Camden Lock Market, Buck Street Market, Stables Market, Camden Lock Village and the indoor market in Electric Ballroom. Our favourite, though, is Camden Lock Market, with an array of vintage clothing, handmade jewellery and food stalls. For some, Camden Town is just a passing-by area. But due to its great location near the Camden Town Tube Station, it can also be a great place to live in London. If you’re house hunting, know that at Uniplaces you can find cosy studios in student residences or apartments in Camden Town.
