Renting in central London, which areas?

[salsoul]

Hi all,

I am looking at relocating and working in central London, at the minute I am based in South Yorkshire and don't know a great deal about the areas in central London, so I am hoping some of you Londoners can help out. I have been looking on rightmove and there are so many different areas! I am looking for a 1 bedroom flat with a small commute to Oxford Street, what would be some good areas to look into with easy access? I would be looking to spend roughly £1000-1500 pcm.

Thanks for any help.
