WOULDN'T KNOW A LEEDS ACCENT TO A BRADFORD ACCENT BUT THEN AGAIN I LIVE IN KENT![]()
I have never lived in Winson Green or indeed lived that side of Birmingham so this just an observation. The area is multi cultural with large contingents of Asian and Afro Caribbean residents. The area was the subject of the recent TV series 'Benefits St' There has been problems on the streets in the past thankfully as far as I know is now well in the past. It has good public transport on hand . I very much doubt if your Leeds accent would be a problem Villa Supporters are pretty tolerant crowd. Both the Birmingham City Hospital and the Midland Eye Hospital are in the area. Its well served by the large supermarket chains and has decent public library.
I sincerely hope you do find a nice comfy home in Brum it is a friendly place but like all big cities it does have its problems
You have to understand that quite a few members of any Birmingham forum will either live in or originate from the Winson Green area, or any other area in Birmingham for that matter, and don’t take too well to negative comments. I moved from Perry Barr in 1970 when it was a good area to live but have no wish to return. All I can suggest is you have a good look around and decide for yourself.
