Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Birmingham

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.

Transportation is great. Shops close by. There is nothing more. Area is dodgy but ok.

Selly oak is selly oak. Standard neighbourhood. Studenty, a bit Rough, but as you’d expect.

Alright area, close to city centre with transport links. Road isnt too busy but neighbours can be noisy

The local area is actually nice and we do not have anything poor to say about this. Plenty of local amenities and transport options

Area ok. Public transport is bus only but ran regularly, shops within 5-10 minute walk. Not a lot to do. There are some nice green spaces and parks though.

Silent neighborhood, just a guy singing karaoke occasionaly from upstairs. The neighbours are mosly nice and helpful.

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.
