Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

Lovely area nice town, good shopping area probably best avoiding this property though

Leytonstone is largely residential, so it feels like a safe area. The amenities aren't great but it's easy to get to Stratford, which is a much livelier area. Transport links are in the form of buses, which only really go to a few places, and the Central line on the tube. There aren't many local restaurants or cafés and supermarkets are sparse.

Not a bad neighbourhood, loud neighbours. No transport other than taxis, shops about 5-10 minute drive. Decent primary school.

Lovely close with nice neighbours. Close to pubs and shops. The only positive I can recall

Take what letting agent's say with pinch of salt, commute to Oxford by car takes > 1hr in rush hr, S3 bus service hit and miss and quite expensive.

Saltaire is lovely with shops close by and saltaire high street just a five minute walk but right next to college and can get noisy in term time. parking bit of a fight. 2 minute walk to train station

Two shops within a short walk (less than 5 minutes), a short walk into town and easy access to bus stops.

Great location for buses under 10 mins to common garden and the number 4 will drop off outside the building. Just high levels of noise due to trains and busy road

Nice area on main road - surrounded by many ammentities which is useful and close to both uni

A short walk to the university campus and a little longer to town. 30 seconds to the nearest convenience store.
Downstairs neighbour, Margaret, was very nice. The majority of local residents are students like ourselves. We rarely had any issues with noise, but there was a lot of rubbish left on the street at the end of term. The university does have steps in place to reduce this however.
