Bristol is a growing city and, unlike most in the UK, it’s packed with a variety of neighbourhoods - some providing a vibrant nightlife while others offering leafy living.
Bristol City Council predicts there will be 550,000 residents populating the city by the middle of this century. But which areas will these people live in? BristolWorld has teamed up with real estate company, Right Move to round up the 10 most sought after neighbourhoods in Bristol.
These picks show the areas where Right Move has received the most enquiries from house hunters. They range from one of the city’s highest-earning neighbourhoods to one of the UK’s most ‘up-and-coming’ places to live based in south Bristol - there’s even a seaside town just outside of the city where people are flocking.
Here are the 10 most sought after neighbourhoods in and around Bristol, ranging from one to 10:
1. Bedminster
Bedminster is one of Bristol’s most-known and loved areas. It has a shopping district packed with independent traders and is a short journey away from the centre while boasting plenty of pubs and activities of its own.
2. Kingswood
Kingswood is known to be a great place thanks to the area’s great schools, superb amenities and fast links in to Bristol city centre.
3. Horfield
Horfield lies on Bristol’s northern edge, its border with Filton marking part of the boundary between Bristol and South Gloucestershire. The area runs along a chunk of Gloucester Road.
4. Clifton
Leafy Clifton is lined with Georgian townhouses while Clifton Village is home to upscale boutiques and quirky independent stores. The area has a busy nightlife and restaurant scene.
