I am from the US and over have spent maybe 4 months of my life in London spread over about 20 visits. I have just started punting (like an idiot, I didn't know it was a thing here. I thought I had to go to Amsterdam or Thailand). But Other than a bit of time at a hotel on the East side next to a methodone clinic, I don't think I have seen or been in a "dodgy neighborhood". But maybe I have and don't know how they read? Maybe they look different to what I am used to (Baltimore, Bronx, Philly ...lots of boarded up windows, smoldering couches, gutted cars, 5-10 guys stand at corner, not a cop in sight ). But I am sure there are some places I should avoid here. And I don't want to stupidly end up in one (Brixton maybe? But I know that only because of the Clash song). . What are the dodgy neighborhood names I have to worry about, where Punting occurs? I will say, of the 6 UK punts so far, the neighborhoods seemed absolutely safe, nice, and really upscale.
