Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Radford, Nottingham

Typical student area , very slippery front path leading to the front door, with only one door lock , made us feel unsafe. Student accommodation blocks are the way forward. These people like Mr. Donen sit back in a life of luxury while we students have to live in poor conditions.

Loads of crime happening on the doorstep daily! And squatters next door the police had to be called on multiple occasions

Lovely! Studenty so it’s obviously a bit noisy but it’s manageable. Lots of places to eat and walk around. A good distance between uni and the city. Our neighbours thought it was funny to jump into our garden occasionally but I don’t think they still live there

Occassionally noisy at nights, though not with parties, instead with strange Lenton ambience. Most neighbours were respectful, though one house did use the street as an extension of their personal bins. Each to their own I guess.
Great access to shops and takeout places.

The Lenton Triangle is a good option for second years. It's a very social space with shops in easy walking distance and good links with the city, although you could definitely walk there easily too. It is quite loud with the sheer density of students, and the streets were always packed with cars so not much guarantee of parking.

Standard crappy student area. Pretty close to the shops tho which makes it a little better.

Local area is good. Lots of transport links and in walking distance to the city centre.

Area is dirty and there is always police down our road. Some nice local shops and tram and bus stops are nearby but other than that, not a nice area to live in.

Great student area. Good transport links, close to university, shops and gym. We moved properties but remained in the same area.

The neighbourhood was okay, good as close to jubilee campus but also to city centre but overall not a particularly safe area.

Very popular student area, but at the same time very dodgy and scary to live in, especially if you don’t have appropriate locks on your doors etc.
