Do You Live in London?

So. You live in London. DO you live in London though? How exactly do you DEFINE living in London?

[Thoomas]

Do I live in London? Easy. The answer is no. I live in the Netherlands.

Violate a law in your borough and see which city’s police force comes to arrest you. Then you’ll know .

Snapchat might help, if the london filter comes up then you're in london right?

If you are able to vote for the Mayor of London, then you live in London.

I live in France. I'm French. I've never lived in London, but fell in love with it ever since the first time I visited. I love everything about it, and visit as often as time and budget allow. I really, really consider myself a Londoner when I'm there. Perhaps that doesn't make sense, but London is home to me, as much as any home as ever felt. So, if home is where the heart is, I don't live in London, but London definitely is my home.

Why are you making it a matter of opinion?? IF YOU LIVE IN ONE OF THE LONDON BOROUGHS, THEN YOU LIVE IN LONDON. If you live outside, keep dreaming.

Does anyone know if California is in London ?

[siemens]

I live in Berlin so... No I don't live in London.

My nearest tube station in Athens is in the zone 648294638284629 according to the London Underground

[rubie]

As a south Londoner I resent North London high horsers defining london with the tube map. Clearly never been to streatham.

[cowscrazy]

SInce I'm in Toronto Canada . I'll Say no. But from your map London is getting so big that maybe I should reconsider if I am in London or not

watford is in hertfordshire not buckinghamshire

[kayenta]

It's pretty simple. You live in London if you live in one of the London Boroughs. I live in Hampton Court, Elmbridge, Surrey, with a KT postcode, literally two minutes walk away from London (Richmond borough) across Hampton Court Bridge. My station is in zone 6. I have an 020 telephone number. But I don't live in London, I live in Elmbridge, Surrey. Simple.

Finally, a video that answers my year-long question of "what are the boundaries for London, and what is classed as London?". Good video 👍🏽

[tabmax]

This is rubbish. There is no confusion, London is anywhere which falls under one of the 32 boroughs

[CJT]

I live in SE London, so yes I live in London. I also have an 020 telephone number, so I really do live in London! Geoff nice to see that you used the correct code for London's telephone numbers... 020!

[dopiaza]

I grew up in Bexley - Address was blah blah blah, Bexley, Kent, DA5 ... And my phone code was 0322 for Crayford. Bexley is a London Borough and the border with Kent was 100 yards or so across the road. Confused the hell out of the schools, council etc.

[lukeatkinson]

yep i deffo live in london im in all the zones what londonist pointed out

[alanrookard]

I live in the London Borough of Bexley but my postal address ends Kent with a DA1 postcode Which is Dartford, Kent.
London Boroughs came into existence with the formation of the GLC Greater London Council. A lot of towns in a London Borough still use their old county names in their address.
