Ouseburn is also really nice. There’s a lot of regeneration going on there. You’d be living in a flat instead of a house. It takes about 10 – 15 minutes to walk into town from there. It’s probably better value than Jesmond too, as long as you don’t mind not having a garden.
The Quayside is great but very pricey.
For £650 a month, you could get a decent house in Heaton – which is a lovely area – but it’s not really within walking distance (30 – 40 minutes).
Avoid the west end of Newcastle. Cowgate, Elswick, Benwell, Denton, Fenham – Not great places to live.
I agree Heaton is nice, Cowgate is okay but I would not avoid the West end as there is a thriving Muslim community there.
