Croydon and the places nearby.
Croydon is one of London's biggest centres, with tower blocks, offices, trams and a large shopping district at its heart, surrounded by very different suburbs from Thornton Heath to Addington. It is a huge and varied local market, and a customer in Norbury has little in common with one in Sanderstead. Trades and services here do best by being specific about which parts of Croydon they cover and how quickly they can get there, because heavy competition on broad searches rarely pays off.
Closest to Croydon within the Croydon council area: Purley (3 miles) and Coulsdon (4 miles). Elsewhere in Greater London: Wallington (2 miles), Carshalton (3 miles), Mitcham (4 miles) and Beckenham (4 miles). It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.
Inside Croydon, the site can name areas such as Thornton Heath, South Norwood, Addiscombe, Norbury, Shirley, Sanderstead, Selsdon and New Addington.
Croydon (postcode area CR) sits about 156 miles east of Exeter.
