Miles Platting
One of Manchester's most affordable areas, minutes from the centre
Miles Platting sits between the city centre and Newton Heath, undergoing steady regeneration. New housing and improved infrastructure are changing the area, though it retains a gritty, urban character. Its biggest asset is price — some of Manchester's lowest rents and property prices, yet the NQ is a 15-minute walk.
