Selly Oak has some charm to it, but definitely is not for everybody. During the day it is more than fine, but night time can get a bit sketchy.

Has its charms - good places to eat, big student population so always round the corner from a friends house, good location to uni. But not very safe at all, as long as you don’t go out by yourself at night it’s generally fine but there are always creepy men walking around. Very noisy and dirty, always broken glass on the floor and overturned bins. I’ve lived in selly oak for 3 years and it has been fine overall, as a student area it works.

Quieter than the part of Selly closer to campus, fantastic transport links (11 bus opposite the front door, 10 min walk to the train), and it's nice being so close to Bournville village.
