| Comment | Yeah as I said in reply to another comment, it's not that I found Dennistoun to be a bad area per se. Needing some attention here and there - definitely. But given that I've seen 1-bed flats there going for £450 pcm only a few months ago - it's a pretty fair deal honestly.
It really reminded me of Gorgie in Edinburgh. Not a bad or dangerous area by any means, maintenance leaving lots to be desired - but also not an area I'd describe as "hip and cool" or really take any visitor to the city to. :)
On the point of it being close to the City Center, my comment would be that despite the physical proximity it seems to be separated from the Centre by a handsome stretch of mostly uninhabited areas that I wouldn't personally feel safe walking through after dark. So if I'm going for a drink in the Centre, I would probably have to rely on taxis or public transport to get back home, which kind of defeats the whole purpose of the physical proximity to the Centre. Just my impression though. :) |
