I have found this house.
https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=126+Gregory+boulevard+oak+letts&hl=en&ie=UTF-8
Is that a decent area, is my car going to get stolen?

Sh*t hole, but i've lived all round that area and i'm still here, so it's not that bad really.
Decent Victorian houses though and walking distance from town,
basically if you want affordable housing within walking distance of Uni,
you're going to have to live in an area with a bit of a reputation.
But tbf that's the whole of Nottingham, there are far worse places to live than Gregory Boulevard.
It's a bit of a pita when the Goose fair's on though.

What Sargara said. A mate lived on Gregory Boulevard and had his car vandalised.
Bus w**ker
Remember he's a student, pretty much all the of the 'nice' places you've mentioned are a no go instantly for him and he'll have no choice, if he's not going for halls, but to look in all the places you've told him to avoid LOL. Also I'd not choose to live in St Anns but I'd go Thorneywood which backs on to it. It's all relative, for example Bilborough is now up and coming due to the tram(p) extension etc.
I'm looking at a place in Arnold atm, it's just off Mapperley Plains so as far away from the shithole town centre as possible...and damn right I'll be telling people I live in Mapperley lol.
sbridgey, guessing first year? Go with halls, duck, you'll have the best time there IMO, it'll be cheaper than a house share (in the vast majority of cases) and the accomodation will be more secure. Secure parking...yeah you'll struggle with that but street parking isn't too bad dependant on where you park obviously.
iirc he's finished uni and got a job now, maybe just living with people who are still students / mature students
Yeah but hopefully his new housemates wont be CS members. Tbf though I've met the guy a few times and he seems sound.
FLOL.

Almost Dave, I have completed my first 2 years and now I am doing a work placement for a year before returning to uni for my final year.

I have quite a large budget I think, and if you believe everything that is written on CS that is me but in reality it isn't me.

The house I am looking at has a driveway so hopefully it minimises the risk of vandalism.
Just make sure everything is chained down during Goose Fair.
EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING.
Much nicer area. Good nightlife too.

Reasons why I recommended West Bridgeford is because I used to work full time and now just when they need a hand in converting old building to multi accomadations for people like students.
From my memory I can remember at least 20 buildings that have been done.
Id move to West Bridgeford rather than thorneywood.
Nice one Simon.
I'm only a few miles up the road if you want a beer.
