Levy — Manchester's hottest up-and-coming neighbourhood

Levenshulme (or 'Levy' to locals) is having a moment. The Levenshulme Market draws crowds from across Manchester, independent businesses are opening along Stockport Road, and a creative community has put down roots. It's diverse, friendly, affordable (for now) and has a genuine village feel. The one everyone's talking about.
