Market note
West End and south side family streets hold a premium over the city average.
Glasgow still prices below Edinburgh for similar space. The West End, Shawlands and the south side pull professionals; the Merchant City and Finnieston pull renters who want to walk to work and nightlife. Factor in Scottish tenement maintenance when you compare a cheap flat with a more expensive house.
The subway and suburban rail make a car optional for many inner neighbourhoods.
Denominational and non-denominational catchments overlap. Confirm both if that matters to your household.
The centre is lively at weekends. Residential West End and south-side streets generally report fewer offences. Check the last walk from the nearest subway stop.
