Newton Heath
Historic Manchester — where Newton Heath LYR (Manchester United) began
Overall
Newton Heath is a working-class neighbourhood with deep roots — it's literally where Manchester United was founded (as Newton Heath LYR FC in 1878). The area has good tram connections on the Oldham/Rochdale line, local shops along Oldham Road, and some of Manchester's most affordable housing.
