Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Manchester

Transport links good in the area
Parking on the road was poor
General area was decent

The local area is decent, It's a bit far from the main shops but it's not much of a problem for me.

Quiet area just sometimes dificult to park, never heard anything off the neighbours so was good that way

Close transport links to the centre
15 min walk to trafford bar tram links
1 min walk to 15 bus to Piccadilly

Area is diverse and vibrant. Good shops and nice bars. Very close to regular pubic transport links. Good sense of community. There is quite a lot of emergency housing around the area but the people are generally nice.

Shops and transport are good, but the blockhouse is full of inconsiderate people. They are unfriendly, and do not comply to basic hygiene measures, for example the rubbish disposal is a hazard because of their behavior.

Nice and quite, no issues even with being in a student area. On a main road so roads can get a little busy.

A couple of shop and takeaways up the road. A pretty vile pub that you shouldn't go in.. Great transport links, the tram stop is 2 minutes away and the trip to town takes around 50 minutes. The local bus services are poor.

It's a 15 minute walk to Wythenshawe, through the parks by the school so it's not a bad walk or you can go on the tram in 5 minutes.

Air traffic taking off and landing at all times is a nightmare but double glazed windows when closed helps.

Despite Fallowfield being a great area to live in, the road this property is on was known for the wrong reasons, especially at night. Local residents there were very unfriendly, possibly exacerbated due to the appearance of the property for four months with plyboard instead of glass in the front door. Neighbours made it clear they thought this was my son/his housemates fault, which it wasn’t, and they received very negative comments that made them all feel very uncomfortable living there. Despite telling Simon about this, they still had to wait four months for this repair to be completed.

Occasional break-ins into the house, but overall not a bad neighbourhood. Close to main road and shops.
