Upmystreet.com's neighbourhood snapshot of the centre of Camden Town states that the average family income of those living in the area is medium and the interest in current affairs is high.
A low percentage of the houses are owned by those with a mortgage, so there is plenty of opportunity for those looking for property to rent in the area.
Of those living in Camden Town, a high proportion is educated to a degree level and not very many are couples with children - most are young workers who live in flats.
Transport
Car ownership among the people living in the area is low as they live close to the centre of activity, so residents rely heavily on public transport.
A London Overground station - Camden Road - is located at the corner of Royal College Street and Camden Road and St Pancras and Euston terminals are both just a 20-minute walk from the town.
Camden Town Underground Station is located near to the area's popular markets. It is on the Northern Line, which also services Tottenham Court Road and Leicester Square.
