Just a warning, the UK has major problems with anti-social behaviour and youth crime in many places. The police do very little about to stop it.

I'm not sure why you've been downvoted.

This is the exact reason why I left London. It's fine and good if you are by yourself or your partner. But once you have kids, it's very difficult to live in the capital. A lot of stabbing and anti-social behaviour. You'd need to live in the rich parts of London (Chelsea..etc) and even then it's not very safe.
