The best thing about living here is having the city right on your doorstep. There’s a brilliant mix of independent cafes and bars nearby, and Symphony Park is a great spot to hang out, even if it gets a bit crowded with students when the weather is nice. Transport is incredibly easy with the trains and buses so close, though you can basically forget about owning a car as parking is non-existent. It’s definitely not the quietest area—the street noise and nightlife are constant—but the trade-off is that the surroundings are kept really clean and the bin collections are actually reliable. It’s a busy, lively place to live, but the convenience is hard to top.

Living in the Circle Square area is all about the energy. You’ve got everything from independent cafes to Symphony Park right on your doorstep, so you never really have to leave the immediate vicinity for food or a bit of fresh air. It’s incredibly handy being so close to Oxford Road station, though the constant buzz of buses and students means it’s rarely truly quiet. The main trade-off is the noise and the total lack of parking, but the convenience usually wins out. Everything is kept clean, the bins are actually emptied on time, and it feels like a proper modern community. It’s perfect if you want the city at your feet, but definitely not the place for anyone after a bit of peace and quiet.
