Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Birmingham

relatively safe location - no issues. Some roads nearer to the train station are unsafe so I would not walk around alone at night but personally i have had no issues

Good transport links, close to the uni and shops however had some issues with neighbours as they were quite disruptive and police had to be called a couple of times

near shops ideal location, however noisy neighbours doing construction. near shops and campus

Close to amenities, such as Selly Oak station and a corner shop. 20 minute walk to campus. Relatively quiet road compared to others in Selly Oak student area.

Quiet and good neighbourhood. Residential on other side of street. Sometimes there is traffic.

Good location to bristol road and also to uni, and not far from the park, had no issues with break ins

it’s close to campus and the shops and bus stops and it was easy to get around.
so that was good

Really close to train station, retail park, shops, and university. Not very clean (rats, bins etc were a problem)

This is hard to review it since this depends on your luck. At least the neighbors living next to me are sometimes quite noisy.

Selly Oak - the dream of all dreams. 10 minutes to uni and close to Bristol Road. The only good thing about this house.
