Croydon is a large town and borough, 10 miles to the south of Central London. It has its own CR postcode area, covering the postcodes CRO (Croydon), CR2 (South Croydon), CR3, (Caterham, Whyteleafe), CR4 (Mitcham), CR5 (Coulsdon), CR6 (Warlingham), CR7 (Thornton Heath), CR8 (Kenley, Purley), and CR9 (Croydon). Croydon has three UK parliamentary seats at Croydon North, Croydon South and Croydon Central and includes the wards of Addiscombe, Broad Green, Fairfield, Waddon, Croham, Selhurst, Ashburton, Woodside, Sanderstead, Shirley and Selsdon.

Croydon is almost a city in its own right, with culture, shopping and entertainment a-plenty. There are multiple local websites and apps just about living in Croydon. It has strong transport links to central London, via multiple local train stations, plus is close to Gatwick Airport and the M25.

Croydon increasingly attracts a crowd who want to avoid London’s higher prices, meaning a growing technology, arts and leisure scene. This means development is happening fast, with a new large shopping centre planning in the next few years, plus a second outpost of Boxpark and new cinemas and art galleries. There are also multiple new houses and apartment developments in Croydon.

As Croydon is increasingly attracting busy professionals, demand for a simple, online booking service for cleaners has been growing fast. Despite only expanding to Croydon recently, Housekeep cleaners have cleaned hundreds of houses already!
