Wybourn-what's it like these days?

[rootsman 10]

I've been offered a house on maltravers crescent, and have heard rumours that the area has improved a lot in recent years. What's it like to live on?

I've been offered a house on Maltravers Crescent, what's the area like these days? When I moved to Sheffield about 10 yrs ago it had a bad reputation, but I've heard things have improved. Can anyone shed any light on it? Also, what schools are in the catchment area and what are they like?

Bit on the rough side

I have lived on both Boundary road and Maltravers crescent, must say, I have lived in worse places (a lot better as well)

Its rough but not as bad as what people make out.

I was born and raised on the wybourn, my mum and dad still live in the same house.

Never had any problems.

There has been lots of money poured into the area, the houses are being refurbed and they are doing a fantastic job.

Its no worse than any other council estate!

She also had two bogus water officials trying to get in.
