Well seems a little bit expansive on Central London. If say that was reduced to zone 1, most of the Polish areas would fall outside of it. And I say this as someone whose current area has just be slightly cropped out on that Central London view - and I'm a far cry from what I'd call central. -_-

The three wards listing Japanese surprise and intrigue me.

I said central-ish :P It's up to about Zone 3 I think.

Swedish should be bigger. Does Swedish have enough good events and leaders?

I mean it is a map that shows almost all of the DLR routes. I think just minus the one stop left in zone 4. :P

I had no idea that Brixton was such an Iberian stronghold.  :ph34r:

:lol: I am not in Brixton but in the Spanish/Portuguese area. There is an Iberian presence, but I think it's probably mostly Latin Americans.

It all remains within the family.  :P

Latin Americans often don't like being lumped in the Spanish and Portuguese but I guess if you actually move to Europe you are probably fine with that.

:lol: Maybe. In my area the shops/restaurants/cafes are pretty clearly Latin American (mainly Colombian and Brazilian). We have an event in the area for Colombian independence day and a (small) Latin American carnival.

There is also a large Spanish and Portuguese community. This area has a lot of Portuguese, but in general I'd associate the Spanish community more with East London (in the Bengali bits especially). I used to live there during the Eurozone crisis and I remember there was like one year from when the supermarket went form having one or two Spanish products to an entire aisle :lol:

With what many say about London, I'm sure there is some yob out there who'd say that for "second language", they're surprised those aren't all "English".  :P
