Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Highfield, Sheffield

The best thing about the area is the location. It is really close to both university campuses and only about a fifteen minute walk into the city centre. However, the area can feel a bit unsafe at times, especially at night. There were a few situations where I didn’t feel entirely comfortable walking home. Noise was also an issue on some streets, depending on your neighbours and how busy the road is. The houses in Highfield can be quite hit or miss. Some are fine, but a lot are quite old or badly maintained. It really depends on your landlord and the exact street.
