Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

Great location in terms of shops, parks and travel. Located next to a large car park where homeless people slept. Had 2 instances where they managed to enter the flat building due to the downstairs tenants leaving the door open/breaking it. Weren't warned of weekly music / performances in building directly next door, every weekend from around 5pm till 11:30pm. Noise complaints never addressed by council. downstairs tenants also smoked weed, and played music until about 4am on weekends.

The area is nice and quiet, a river runs nearby. The property is a 6-8 min walk away from town center.

Good neighbourhood, fifteen minute walk from main train station. Close to buses and local shops, good neighbours.

The area is a typical student area, the road was lovely but not very safe and notorious for break-ins and muggings

On-street parking available, although spaces can be hard to find if arriving home late in the day.

Traffic on road outside can be fairly loud and intrusive but if you’re used to living in a city it probably will not bother you.

Neighbours are generally very friendly and quiet, although we were very rarely (<5 times in two years) disturbed by residents in the social housing block of flats a few doors down when they had parties/domestic disputes.

Generally well positioned with an overground station round around the corner and good transport links to the city and clapham junction

very close to bus stop, not too far from fallowfield but closer to withington, rough area though most of fallowfield is, tend to have hordes of students going to socials at about midnight on a wednesday

Local area is okay, neighbours were fairly chilled out and we never ran into any problems with them.

Cul de sac location just off the high street. Lovely for kids to play out and plenty locally, both shops wise and nightlife, gyms etc. Only down side is one particular neighbour and the street’s management company, part of Percival & Company, who are shockingly unprofessional

Chesterton is nice, lovely high street and close to city centre. There are some nice cafes and pubs near by.
