What's it like living in/near Coventry?
Scroll to see replies
Used to live in Nuneaton, but moved three years ago. My uncle and aunt live in Cov with their kids though, and we visit them atleast every month.
It's not a great place - pretty dull, but the shopping centre is quite good: many shops, huge. Transport is ok, but it's mainly a quiet little town. The cathedral and that big statue are the only real historical places of interest.
Personally, wouldn't want to live there.
Nice houses though.

Thanks ever so much for the opinions guys! Very useful 
So general conclusion is a shrug of the shoulders - it's very concrete, fair nightlife, lots of bars (few coffee shops!), pretty cathedral but all pretty humdrum. Plus some crime in places, but I don't know how much that is just city norm, as I live in the countryside and always have!
Hm, well it's not exactly inspiring, but seems that it might be worth compromising on the city (which seems alright) for the course I like - History and Renaissance Studies at Warwick Uni ^.^
Thanks for sharing everyone!
