| Comment | I've lived in cessnock for the past 7 years and don't plan going anywhere.
Easy bus links to town, Paisley, and the fancier end of the Southside. Subway to the West End. Beruit Star and Schwarma Grill for cheap good food. Neighbours who are friendly without being nosey, and the Co-Op staff are beyond lovely. Plus it's walking distance from town and a big Asda or Aldi if you absolutely need to.
Yes the orange march is a massive pain the arse, football is annoying, and same goes for the subcrawls and the infrequent gigs at Bella, but I couldn't name anywhere else in Glasgow with such good transport links that's affordable to live.
Oh and having Kinning Park Complex on your doorstep is a big plus as well.
In terms of Junkies and crime, the worst I could say for cessnock is there's a couple of friendly people you might get to know who I've noticed are day-drunk with a frequency that makes you concerned for their wellbeing. In more than 15 years living in Glasgow most of my friends who've been broken into lived in the West End, always led me to figure that sort of thing is a risk anywhere.
In short, I'd recommend it. |
