Manchester Houses  

Manchester in the recent past has been dominated by the music scene and still is today. You are never far away from a reminder of the bands that have spawned here; The Smiths, New Order, Oasis, The Stone Roses, and Happy Mondays. Nowhere can boast the multitude of global artists and up and coming acts to experience on a daily basis in a confined city centre, so if you are a music lover this alone could be your reason for living in the city. Manchester boasts some of the finest restaurants in the country, cinemas, chic bars, comedy clubs and night clubs frequented by the most affluent and celebrity types. There is a diversity of culture in Manchester epitomised by China Town and Rusholme ‘The Curry Mile’, the largest concentration South Asian and Middle Eastern restaurants outside of the Indian Subcontinent.   

There are endless shopping options in Manchester city centre from boutique stores, high street retailers to high end fashion outlets all within walking distance, also The Trafford Centre is only a short drive away. Manchester houses a plethora of fine art galleries, Theatres(Manchester is home the very finest philharmonic orchestra), museums (one houses the most complete skeleton of a T-Rex in the world), and culturally significant buildings and monuments. Manchester has endless parks and open spaces also boasting one of the largest parks in Europe, Heaton Park to the north of the city. Manchester also has the largest student population in Europe, which brings with it both cultural and economical advantages to the city. If you are a student there really is no other place quite like it.  

Manchester was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution of many of the buildings still reflect the industrial past of the city. Great wealth came into Manchester during this period and as a result the city expanded and as a result the wealthy move further and further out of the city into rural areas. Prior to 15 years ago young professionals tended to opt for areas such as Chorlton or Didsbury as preferred living hotspots however due to the sheer number of modern developments of apartments in the city the population has soared. This renaissance was mainly due to the bomb which ripped through the city centre in 1996 and in sheer Mancunian defiance the city took the opportunity to transform itself utilising old warehouses and mills into uber-fashionable apartment and office blocks.  

Over the last 15 years the city has undergone massive redevelopment and the commercial side of the city has really come into its own. Manchester is the most rapidly increasing regional economy outside of London and many multinational organisations now have their headquarters based in the city. Partner that with the recent and ongoing relocation of the BBC headquarters to Media City on Salford Quays and you can see Manchester really is the UK’s second city.
