Residents living in the Bristol ward with the highest density of HMOs have opened up about what life is like - with one saying the situation is "intolerable".
Nearly a quarter of houses in Cotham are classed to be HMOs according to data released by Bristol City Council. There are a total of 1,046 houses of multiple occupancy in the area, which means Cotham is the ward with the greatest density of HMO properties - 21.7 per cent of all housing there are HMOs.
Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMOs) are often a cause of anger or concern among residents - but when we visited the ward last month it appeared that was not the case there. However, following on from our article, BristolLive was contacted by Cotham residents and one of the councillors in the area who shared their experience of HMOs.
