Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Manchester

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.

The neighbourhood is calm and no disturbances. But I already have a big disturbance in the name of my landlord and dont need one from outside.

A lot of rubbish everywhere and the smell of weed very strong. A lot of noise as well. particularly over weekends.

Good neighbor hood lots to do shops close by and a train station close by as well as buses.

It 1 minute walk to the bus stations and you can go walking to the city centre. Also train station is 10 mins walk.

The local area was really great with amazing neighbours. Would have given it a 10/10, however a troubled kids home opened up at the end of our street and they ended up taking drugs in our garden and causing all sorts of havok.

It is an amazing neighborhood. All our neighbors got along very well and the area is very pretty with nice green spaces and ideally placed between west Didsbury and Didsbury village.

Run down area but close to shops and a park. Close to bus route. Opposite Victorian Baths.

Nice area, no problems, neighbours mostly kept to themselves. No problems with burglary or anything, near to the centre of Longsight.
