Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Glasgow

Bridgeton is a lovely area in Glasgow. It has a train station and is walking distance away from the City Centre. Forge Retail Park, which has all the major supermarkets, is also within walking distance. The Glasgow Women's Library is a must-visit.

Not the fanciest of places, but the railway station is right nearby, and it's a short hop to the city centre. This particular set of buildings is one of the better ones in the area. Another advantage is that you're almost next door to Glasgow Green.

As for the area, I always felt safe living there, which was really important to me. It’s also very close to the train station, which made getting around super convenient.

One small downside might be that the nearest supermarket isn’t right around the corner, but honestly it never caused me any real issues. Since the station is so close, I usually just did my grocery shopping near university or in the city centre and brought everything back on my way home.

There are also bus stops nearby, so transport is easy, and the city centre isn’t far at all. There’s a park nearby as well, which is nice, and it’s also close to the vintage market, which I really enjoyed.

Close to the university with plenty of different food places in the area. Only issue is the amount of students, which means there is not much of a culture to the area.

Can’t fault the location it’s ideal for the west end but you’ll not get to enjoy it because your time will be taken up fighting tooth and nail for basic human rights

Terrible for normal people. Full of junkies (drug addicts) intimidatingly trying to gain access to buildings to take drugs and sleep. Will also steal anything they can get their hands on. Will destroy property to gain access also. People taking drugs everywhere and it’s the hard stuff.

Lots of inconsiderate students stay locally.

Very good area, with nice people to live with. Kelvingrove park is a 1 minute walk away, with many bars and restaurants In there area. I would say that I was overcharged due to the poor attitude from the agency however.

Not bad, but the women that is sent to check up on the flat daily smokes inside and in the stairwells.

Nice area, next to Kelvingrove park, plenty of shops nearby. Just a pity about the landlords.

Had issue with neighbours stealing parcels left in common area but they have left now.
