As home to Bristol University, the University of West England, thriving job opportunities and loads of places to explore and experience, it’s no wonder Bristol has become especially popular among younger people. But with the price of housing in and around the city still so high, many people looking to move here have to rule out the city centre itself.
In search of some less obvious options, one young professional took to Reddit to ask Bristolians for their suggestions. The poster, who is looking to move to the city for work in September, asked where the best place to live is for a ‘new young professional’.
The poster, who was looking to rent a spare room, said rents seemed "insanely high" in the city centre so they were open to a commute of up to 30 minutes. They were also after somewhere they might bag a parking spot, which is often a rarity when it comes to Bristol rentals.
