5 queerest London boroughs revealed
The five boroughs with the highest percentage of LGBTQIA+ households have been revealed. According to research conducted by Barratt London, which analysed 2021 census data, the five most queerly populated locations have been identified, excluding the City of London.
The research findings showed that all of the boroughs are, in fact, connected by one of their boundaries and predominantly in East London.
In fifth place is Tower Hamlets, where 14 percent of households identify as LGBTQIA+. Neighbouring borough Hackney takes the fourth position with 14 per cent alongside Islington and Southwark, also coming in with 14 per cent.
Lambeth ranks top with almost one in six households identifying as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. Lambeth has its own LGBTQIA+ forum named Lambeth Links, a charity that advocates for the community and promotes inclusivity for those who live, socialise and work in the area.
