In what sense? It’s pretty hard to compare a Saturday afternoon in Trafalgar Square vs Canary Wharf vs Burgess Park to a Tuesday morning rush hour time in those same places.
It’s a massive global city with anything you can possibly want to do or eat, with some amazing areas to some shit areas and everything in between! It can sometimes be crazy, hectic, busy, expensive but theres a reason went millions of people live and/or work or travel there every single day.
It’s not for everyone but that’s fine. I know people who can’t stand it, and I personally can’t imagine living anywhere else. Most people fall somewhere in the middle though. Everything in life is a compromise in some way.
Currently, it’s colourful and busy with Christmas lights, parties and markets. Crime feels the same it’s ever done (generally pretty safe but you have to be careful). It’s so much nicer to walk /cycle places than it used to be with wider pavements, pedestrian areas, cycling lanes etc. If you’re driving, it’s horrible. The tube older lines are still horrible but new Elizabeth line is amazing. Some suburbs have lots of flags up, some have none at all. The cost of everything is crazy - £8-9 for a pint typically.
