Thanks! I thought so, but better safe than sorry!

What's the area like? I've applied for a nanny job there. Would you recommend it as a decent part of London to live/work/raise children?

Super posh! It's next to Buckingham Palace!

Very nice area of London. Clean with a spacious feel.

Very nice part of London. Good luck with your job search!

It’s a bit dead, for me — embassies, high-end offices, houses of the international super-rich which are often empty for months at a time.
