Accomadation in Edinburgh

Good day all.

I am looking at moving to Edinburgh next year. And need some advice on where would be a good place to set up in, weather it be house share, house mate or a place to myself. Could anyone give me some thorough advice, on what area is good not high end fancy just decent and what pricing is like?

Thanx

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

The majority of people in Scotland live in a region that's known as the "Central Belt"; this link will explain it in more detail.

Edinburgh is in the region and is almost certainly the most expensive part of Scotland to live; in general, the further away from Edinburgh, the cheaper everything is.

If you want details of costs, then the Numbeo website provides some historical information that may help you; this link will take you there.

If you have any further specific questions, please come back to us.

Thank you very much. I'll definitely look into those links.
How good is the public transport system around The Edinburgh area? Will I need a car immediately? Or could I get around for a while with public transport?

Public transport in and around Edinburgh is good.
