I've lived in both. I currently live in South London and have for the last 15 years. Personally I prefer South to North London but the majority of friends live North of the river.
It always ends up being me that does the lion's share of travel to get to get togethers with friends and family. People pull faces and say "Oh but it's so far away!" without thinking for a second that it's the exact same amount of time for me to get to them as the other way round.
We do try and meet in the middle to make it fair but suggestions for bars and restaurants are always in North London. At the very best it's the South Bank ( which is just honorary North really).
Suggestions of anywhere in the southern outposts of the tube just get shot down.
So (lighthearted!) why do people dislike south London so much?
