Errrm, Catford is a suburb. And I agree with you about what a shithole
it is.

Wrong again. Catford has a proper town centre, a village green, mixed
use zoning, grid topology, and good public transport. So not a suburb
in the modern sense of the word. Not like those ghastly places outside
the M25 consisting of homogeneous detached housing subdivisions/ cul
de sacs / megamalls / business parks. Besides, Catford has been a part
of London proper for ages. It's no more a suburb than Kensington.

How do you know, you don't live there.
