Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Liverpool

Extremely noisy, pub across the street having karaoke and blasting music daily. Chicken shops attract yobs who destroy the bus shelter and litter, and climb the buildings and kick doors in.

Lovely area right across from Albert docks and less than 5 minute walk from Liverpool City Centre.

It's okay but very clicky. Lots of issues due to the flats on the road. Police responses present often.

Excellent area but the big houses here being bought up and converted to flats for supported living and police out every 5 minutes

The neighbourhood is a hellhole. Do a search in the Liverpool Echo site for Lowbridge Court before you move here. Over the 5 years we've lived there there has been a £15 million drug bust down the street, a drug dealer living in the apartment opposite us on the hallway, a cannabis farm in the apartment neighbouring that one, and a drug dealing gang living in the next apartment block over which victimised us when they realised we were a same-gender couple with multiple public order offences and physical assaults all recorded with the police. The estate management company is obstructive to tenants in dealing with these matters and say they retain CCTV footage for only 7 days, don't recall footage on request of tenants (only the police, who usually take longer than a week to properly begin their investigation, they also ask the police to pay for recalling the footage). When we left this gang was openly dealing drugs out of the front gates and persistently loitering around outside their block causing anti-social behaviour issues with residents.
Additionally, despite it being against the terms of the leasehold, the apartment directly beneath is let out as an AirBnB style booking and has people coming and going causing noise at all hours of the day and having parties. Estate management has also taken no effective steps to remedy this at the time we left (Feb 2020).

Great location in centre of Liverpool, 2 minute walk to bars and shops. Parking is a problem as the a Cargo refuse visitor parking, but this can be obtained from LCC.

Area is relatively nice, keep in mind there are few clubs working at night in the area that is quite annoying for tenants living on lower floors.

Good transport links. Reasonably close to shops. Area not the most affluent and quite noisy.

Neighbourhood is fine, busy on match days but otherwise good. Neighbours are great.

Quiet with good shopping and transport links. It is slightly run down but never had any trouble
