| Comment | I’d advocate for the south side. Kings Park/ Shawlands etc. Shawlands has a lot going on, quite a few wee nice restaurants and pubs. Kings park has ok houses and is quiet.
I moved here from south Scotland last year and found that the west end was well out my price range for renting.
Finally settled on a 3 bed cottage flat in kings park. 580 per month with front and back garden. Eventually we would like our own property but right now the pennies don’t seem to be there. The train is not far away into town and takes around 15 minutes. A lovely green park 5 minutes away. Hardly any neds.
I’ve got friends in some of the east end areas who say the tenement flats have huge rooms and the social aspect is great! So think it really just depends on your budget and what you want.
I’d advise not to make EK a permanent fixture. It’s boring, drab and quite a bit of trouble in the less desirable areas |
