Bad things about Ilford
You will most probably see places immediately out of the station with mixed dodgy crowd. There are young males loitering around the station exit for change or a spare cigarette. Recently a friend of mine got duped near the ATM next to the station exit. places immediately near the train station are busy and `chavy`. Having said that, the chavy crowd is not usually harmful.
