Neighbours in a Nottinghamshire street say they love living among student homes, describing the occupants as 'helpful' and 'looking out' for other residents. Houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) divide opinion, as some have previously said that they can take away from families moving into an area, "destroy communities" and create parking problems.
There are a number of HMOs on Fletcher Road in Beeston. And residents on the road itself say living among student houses is enjoyable, even if there is the odd party or incident.
Pat Parks, 70, said: "There was a bit of loud music played down here where we live and the odd party, but it didn't happen for long and they have spoken to neighbours affected and apologise for what happened. In the houses where students live, they've always been helpful and have looked out for their neighbours.
