About: Banksy’s New Street Art in London: Unmasking the Zoo of Modern Society (9 Photos)
About: 3D Pearls on the Deptford landmark in London, UK
London, England
London leads the rankings as the world’s best city for street art, with 472 documented murals and a rich history of urban art across Camden, Shoreditch, and Brick Lane. A new Banksy piece appeared in March 2024, adding to the city’s growing collection.

- 3,764 TikTok posts using #londongraffiti
- 84,300 Google searches for London street art in 2024
- London saw a 19% increase in searches related to graffiti and murals
The findings reflect a growing public interest in street art, with cities investing more in legal mural spaces, guided tours, and cultural events centered around urban art.
While some argue that mainstream recognition dilutes graffiti’s rebellious roots, others see it as a way to preserve and promote an art form that has long been dismissed as mere vandalism.The rankings also raise questions about gentrification, as neighborhoods once defined by their underground art scenes become curated tourist attractions. Rising property values often follow increased interest in street art, attracting developers and wealthier residents while pushing out the original communities that helped foster these creative spaces. As murals draw in visitors and businesses capitalize on the area’s newfound appeal, the very people who contributed to its artistic identity are often priced out. Who truly benefits from street art’s growing popularity?
In the end, the debate over street art’s role in urban life continues—but one thing is clear: it’s not going anywhere.
