    Yeah, that’s UK. We’ve a million streets like that, those trees in the park-looking bit opposite. I’d imagine the house with the bins is a hotel or a B&B, something like that, because otherwise it would be odd to have so many the same colour - green is compostable and black is ‘bottles and cans’ where I live, and you normally just get one of each.

    Don’t know what the green stripe on the road is. Our cycle lanes don’t look like that, aren’t that colour. I’m guessing it’s some “who’s allowed to park where in London” thing, residents-only or something like that. They’re a strange bunch, Londoners.

      A reverse image search shows this image dates back to at least 2009, and I found this bike lane in London that’s narrow and painted green in 2008 https://www.google.com/maps/place/Greenwich,+London,+UK/@51.4944828,-0.0498872,3a,75y,162.52h,61.82t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1sNVulH3Rd1Ouc6-vgvx-xTw!2e0!5s20080601T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fcb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26pitch%3D28.175365412625304%26panoid%3DNVulH3Rd1Ouc6-vgvx-xTw%26yaw%3D162.52083347245127!7i13312!8i6656!4m6!3m5!1s0x47d8a9cea79975f3:0x1470a7a162e4ca6c!8m2!3d51.4933675!4d0.0098214!16zL20vMG5xdjE?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTAwOC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

      Lots of those huge old terraced houses are subdivided now and there’s like 5 or 6 flats in each one, hence all the bins.

      I feel like just the graphical style and colors of the poster scream UK (and I’ve never even been there, just pay attention)

        It’s the off-center, slightly askew, and inverse-contrast text block that says “UK” to me

      I thought so too! I just thought there could potentially be other places in the world that looked very similar that I don’t know about. I’m a Londoner 😆 and that many wheelie bins instantly makes me think it’s houses divided into flats… a landlord special round here.

      (For some bizarre reason when I first looked at the picture, I did not see the green bit as green at all. It looked grey and the road looked red-purple, not unlike some bus lanes). Now that I see the green, bike lanes down here are indeed green, but they might also just be regular tarmac with the white painted bicycle painted every now and then… unless it’s a ‘cycle superhighway’ of course, in which case it’s blue 😵‍💫
