Some of the districts that fall under the West Wimbledon SW20 area include Raynes Park, Lower Morden, Merton Park and Wimbledon chase. This area is under Merton's Local Authority. There are numerous busy streets with various amenities and shops; there are also natural parks like Cannon Hill, Common and Cottenham Park. Things are a bit less noisy than in Wimbledon Town and village, however its close proximity to the various shops and restaurants increases its allure.
There are various properties in the area from apartments to flats to semi detached homes and many others. Both working class youth and people with families live here. Transportation to and from central London is really reliable and this is among the many reasons why a significant number of people live here.
Present are trains heading to Clapham Junction and Waterloo in addition to excellent tube links. There are also Trams linking East Croydon. For most of the people living in this tranquil leafy area, commuting to and from work every day using public means is really not hectic.
Greater London is divided into two by the Thames River. To the south are the Southwark, Bankside, maritime Greenwich and Lambeth areas. Only a small portion of London's underground network can be found here, however a large section of the suburban railway system (larger than in North London) is located here. Also, all of London's tram services are found here.
The London boroughs of Southwark, Greenwich, Lewisham, Wandsworth, Sutton, Richmond, Bromley, Kingston, Bexley, Croydon, Lambeth and Southwark make up this region. This is how the Boundary Commission for England defines it. The borough of Richmond spreads across the two sides of River Thames. Both Kingston and Richmond boroughs are regarded as part of South London for the purpose of administration. Greenwich, Southwark, Wandsworth and Lambeth fall under Inner London and on the other hand Croydon, Bexley, Bromley, Merton, Sutton and Kingston are regarded as Outer London boroughs; this was determined in 1965.
Similar to most of UK and in accordance to the Koppen system of climate classification, the climate in South London is temperate maritime. In the south of River Thames as well as on the southern edges of the urban area (Kenley Airfield, Hampton, Kew), there are three meteorological offices that observe and collect climate data. In Greenwich there are climate readings from 1763 to 2003 when observation stopped.
The area around River Thames experiences relatively high temperatures due to the warming effect which is as a result of the urban setting. This is also caused by a decrease in altitude as one approaches the river. This translates to lower temperatures on the southern end of South London in comparison to the areas surrounding River Thames. It is not rare for North Downs to have snow when central London is snow-free.
The highest temperature ever recorded in South London was at Kew and it was 38.1 degrees C or 100.6 degrees F. A higher recording from Brogdale has been acknowledged by the Met office but most people are in doubt of its accuracy. The reading from Kew is therefore considered as UK's highest most accurate temperature reading.
