The cheapest places to live in East London

East London is a bustling area with plenty of things to see and do, making it no surprise that it’s a hugely popular place to live, particularly amongst young professionals.  It’s certainly a bustling area with plenty to see and do, and it is one of the most diverse, welcoming, and multicultural parts of London.  Whether you’re climbing onto the property ladder for the first time, you’re looking to move for those extra couple of bedrooms or you’re looking for a buy-to-let property, there are many advantages to moving east; the prices are lower, the areas are undergoing a huge amount of regeneration and there’s no compromise in terms of proximity to Central London and local amenities. Here, we look at the cheapest places to live in East London along the London Underground’s District Line.

Transport Connections

East London has some of the best transport links in the whole of the city. As well as benefiting from Overground links, extensive bus routes and the Docklands Light Railway (DLR), East London benefits from a direct link to Liverpool Street and Central London, via the District Line. But where are the cheapest places to live along the commuter route?

1. Dagenham East

The cheapest station to live near to is Dagenham East, where the average property price is just short of £310,000 and potential homebuyers would need an average deposit of £30,895. The area is due to receive significant investment towards its development over the coming years, with plans already in place for the building of London’s largest film studios in 25 years, East Brook Studios.

2. Upney

With average house prices of £304,545, Upney is the second cheapest District Line station to live near in East London.

3. Barking
