Editorial fit: Affordable Living

West Gorton has seen significant demolition and rebuilding — new housing developments have replaced older estates. It's a neighbourhood in transition. Very affordable, close to the city centre, and improving. The new-build housing stock is a major draw for first-time buyers.
