Neighbours were terrible when I lived there. Meant to be a quiet area it’s not. House parties all the time.
The immediate neighbours are very nice, polite, quiet and friendly. The area has got good transport links to Oxford centre, Woodstock, the train station and the JR. There's a good medical centre close by and theres a good market at the weekend as well as an excellent butcher.
Nice area, close to a famous local park. Can't imagine how the neighborhood being able to bear with such a neighbor before. This landlord is probably the only minus point of this area.
Selly oak is a student town within the city of Birmingham. We did get broken into and there lacks any type of security or adequate policing. It isn’t aesthetically pleasing but somehow it was still an enjoyable experience to be surrounded by other students.
Apart from the landlord and house issues, the location is quite nice. Its a minute away from the bus stop. But, it is quite far from any supermarkets or city center. However one can take bus.
The neighbourhood was one of the main reasons I stayed there as long as I did, such wonderful people on this little cul de sack. I was added into a WhatsApp group chat immediately and the welcome I received was so lovely. If ever I needed any help they were right there
