Avoid 'Moss Side'. As best as you can. Very rough.

it's safe enough to walk from the city centre to salford in the middle of the night, so yeah i'd say it was safe.

Along the lines of the OP: how safe is it to be a student there? Do many students get mugged/attacked or anything?

Oh you don't want to go there. Old Trafford is the place to be.

In the student areas, like Fallowfield, there have been a few muggings, and theres been one sexual assault that i've heard about. Its generally very safe, in the city centre and on public transport. As long as you keep your wits about you and don't go out late at night on your own, you should be fine :smile:

Thanks for telling me. Do you know if that's anywhere around the places I mentioned in a previous post to include the city centre?

Well it's probably a good place to avoid if you are a red anyway.

If it were up to me I'd be going to Old trafford instead. But I can't bcos I'm going on a residential school trip so everything's going to be supervised. As things are supervised it should be OK but I'm still worried as there's going to be 30+ students with only 2 teachers plus I'm going with a bunch of morrons! :eek: :mad: :frown: I'm seriously considering taking an escort for protection but I don't know how to go about getting one of these, affording one and doing all the arrangements. :redface: You see, we're going there by train and tube! :eek: :frown: I'm scared. :frown: :redface:

What do you guys think? Can anyone help me out?
