  • Anyone here lived in Manchester or know the city?

    If I wanted to find an area like south side/Shawlands/Newlands/clarkston down there, where would/should I be looking?

    I'm thinking that with Manchester being a bit bigger than Glasgow I'll be looking at further out from the city centre than shawlands is from Glasgow city centre eh?

    Whatdo you like about the above? From a quick google on Shawlands I reckon Castlefield or Northern Quarter both central mcr might be similar. Depends what you're after though?

  • Similar in what way? It's quite hard to get a feel of a place by googling it's name (don't know Glasgow at all really).
    Northern Quarter is great for bars, a few indie shops etc, but will probably cost you an arm and a leg to live in now. Ancoats is more residential but right on the outskirts of NQ, got some cool little places and a ridiculous amount flats to choose from. Castlefield I know less well but I get the impression it might be a little more yuppie.

  • Manchester's not a patch on Glasgow and its west end. I love the city but it can feel edgy in some places. Theres areas like piccadilly and oxford road I'd be careful on at night. My ex lives in Glasgows west end and had some amazing times.
