Good area to live in

[Dan_Ashcroft 10]

The geographical model based on GCE O level(circa 1968) has been denounced by Danny Dorling and other academics as over-simplistic.

 

The Sheffield Deprivation Maps (particularly the last page of the following link) shows that the A61/west-east divide holds very true in Sheffield:

Having lived in a fair few areas of Sheffield over the past 4 years (I was a student so have moved 5 times!) my favourite place to live is Nether Edge, very leafy and green, beautiful big houses and not far from Abbeydale/London road, so very regular public transport and some fantastic shops and restaurants close by.

If you want a nice area, 2 bedroomed house for around £80k, I'd recommend Heeley. I love living here, it has everything you could actually need.

Good transport links along Queens Road towards S8 (Bus routes 53, 25, 25A etc.) and it's close to the city centre.

[daniel3982 10]

I'd also recommend Heeley or Abbeydale if you're working in S8, a few 2 bed terraces for around £85,90k so you might be able to get them in your budget. Otherwise Lowedges isn't the worst estate in the World and is near S8.

Hello All the wonderful people of Sheffield!!

 

I am trying to move into sheffield and work in S8 post code area. I am looking for a 2 bed house around the 80K mark. I am looking for any ideas from you guys as to what sort of areas that I should avoid and what areas are OK to live in as a family and not worry about your bins getting burnt. I am looking to move anywhere within 5 miles radios from the city centre.

 

I will be much obliged for any input.

 

Thank you

 

Jordanthorpe is great

[wozman 10]

you'll not find much on norwood road for 80k!
