spiritdivine   10 #1 Posted April 8, 2013 Not sure which section to post this but if anyone lives in or has lived in Longley I would appreciate any feedback on the area. Thankyou Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mike84 Â Â 23 #2 Posted April 8, 2013 It's like most areas really, some nice(ish) parts, some parts that aren't. Best thing to do is to go and have a look around, go at different times of the day to see what you think. Â Check the Police Crime website. http://www.police.uk put in the post code and it'll show you crime stats for the area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
pexseven   10 #3 Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah Longley is probably the Nicest area to live in the S5 area ! The bottom end of Longley below Herries Avenue is Especially nice, with the Park nearby also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
spiritdivine   10 #4 Posted April 8, 2013 Thankyou for your replies. I did wonder if it's one of the better areas in S5. I'll check out that police website too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Black Widow   10 #5 Posted April 8, 2013 I'm currently looking at Norwood in S5. Affordable houses but not an area i'm really familiar with! Near the hospital and meadowhall which is good, but need to do what you suggested and go at different times of the day to see what the areas really like.

spiritdivine   10 #6 Posted April 8, 2013 I'e been around the area 5 or 6 times over the last week and it's so quiet. I've been at different times of the day and each time I've not seen anything out of the ordinary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Near the hospital and meadowhall which is good, but need to do what you suggested and go at different times of the day to see what the areas really like.  I live in Norwood and have done so for nearly 7 years and it's the best place I've lived.

monkey69 Â Â 10 #11 Posted April 8, 2013 I live in Norwood and have done so for nearly 7 years and it's the best place I've lived. Â have you been to the four greens area?. its like a chavs paradise!!. this part is one of the worst, so dont bother visiting. i have been here 20years plus had nothing but trouble from teenager, and housebreak ins. every car i have owned has been broken into and vandalized. one thing though my neighbors have been the best.if it wasnt for them would have gone years ago.

AJ-Recovery   10 #12 Posted April 8, 2013 I grew up round the Southey/Longley/Norwood areas:cool::cool::cool:  Parts of EVERY area in Britain or if you want the World have good and bad parts.  Where I am in Southey is quiet, where my parents lived was quiet but if you go a few streets over:help:   I`ve also lived in some of the so called roughest parts of town, it all depends on how you interpret a rough area and how you act.
