Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Sunderland

Area was in a useful location, but my tyred were slashed, a massive fire broke out at the end of the road, and I would often come across drug paraphernalia on my route to work.

For me the property was the perfect location. It is less than 5 minutes walk from the University of Sunderland city campus which is where I was based as a student. It also less than 15 minutes walk from Sunderland Hospital which was perfect for me as this where I worked during and after my degree. There is a metro station at the end of the street, less than 2 minutes walk, providing easy access to Newcastle. The city centre is about 15 minutes walk away. There is an aldi about 20 minutes walk away, a morrisons petrol station around the corner and also a small corner shop less than a minute away. As a student or young professional working in the city centre this would be the perfect location for you to live. The property is quite close to a main road which could be slightly noisy at busy times.

Neighbours were noisy but the area itself was near city campus and shops and very accessible

5 min walk to university, 2 min walk to park lane and 7 min walk to the center. very convienient location.

Transport is handy and close-by as well as the local Aldi. No issues apart from lack of parking. Friendly neighbours. One incident of ASB but was a rare occasion.

Great location to St Peters Campus, the beach, gym and local supermarkets. You have virtually everything there. Unfortunately, the neighbors were not that great. After 8PM you can't do ANYTHING. Any tinny noise and they knock on your door.

Neighbours are bad other than that it's a good area to live, close to city centre and transport.
