Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

The neighbourhood felt quite safe, bar the occasional police presence but nothing out of the ordinary for a city. Plenty of amenities within walking distance from restaurants/cafes to food shops to salons. It is also positioned close to city centre with several public transport links. However, as mentioned, the refuse situation of this area was unpleasant and frustrating: bins littering the street, fly tipping and household rubbish being uncollected for weeks. While this is not a paid-for service, it nonetheless requires improvement.

Nice neighbourhood overall - just watch out for the particular building complex as there are many maintenance issues including mice!

Very local to UoB campus and shops. Good location

Area seems OK, bit tight for parking but good facilities

Decent area. Short drive to M5. Good restaurants

Nice area, decent connections.

Transport route is really good as the buzzes are right opposite the flat so you don’t need to go very far. The town centre is about 15 minute walk which is also good and you have a premier shop right on your doorstep. The noise is really loud as you are on a main road.

Wythenshawe is a good, convenient area for families and everyday living. There are plenty of green spaces and parks, with Wythenshawe Park being a particular highlight. The area has good access to shops, schools, healthcare and public transport, including Metrolink connections. It is also conveniently located for Manchester Airport and the motorway network. We enjoyed living in the area and found it to be a practical and well-connected place to live, with a good community feel.

Area: 7/10

Generally a decent residential area with reasonable access to local amenities and transport. The location is one of the better aspects of the property. However, it is fairly ordinary rather than being a particularly desirable or premium area.

A mixed good area multi cultural close to shops area bus service is terrible with 3 or 4 buses turning up at once or not at all dodgy like anywhere else
