Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Oxford

Really good location. Felt very safe and quick 10 min walk to shops. 20 mins walk to city centre. Amazing public transport

Really nice area, great parks and quiet with young families. The main road has a lot of traffic. Better if you bike.

OK but near to a council estate

Theres was murder near the off license around 10 meters away in 2020

Residential area 10 minutes far from a big grocery shop (on foot). Transport to the city centre is acceptable.

Right on a very busy roundabout. The one redeeming feature is the m&s next door although the food prices are very high even for Oxford

This was probably the best bit of the house: the location.
However traffic rules recently changed (2022) and access to location is now not as quick as before

Great area, good location close to shops and amenities, friendly neighbours and neighbourhood

The neighbourhood is nice. The neighbours were really friendly and there are lots of nice places nearby. Just don't choose this house!!

Headington is a bit boring, but you do have a few supermarkets around, coffee shops, some nice charity shops etc. Not the worst but also not the most vibrant part of Oxford.

Students in the area can be noisy sometimes. The walls are very thin so you can hear the neighbours all the time.
