Anybody here from the darlington area?

I've been to darlington town centre plenty of times so I know it's just like any other town center. I always thought darlington was supposed to be 'full of chavs' but to be honest it was quite pleasant.

Looking to rent a flat but i'm not sure where the nice area's are. I've heard the west side of Darlington is supposed to be the nicest, is this true? Closer to the A1 is better for me so if it's true the west side is nice then thats good! Areas like Mowden/Faverdale etc? What about area's to avoid - I've heard Skerne park isn't great.

I don't want to be smack bang in the middle, maybe JUST on the outskirts. Any advice is welcomed!

It's the big one, where they have the fireworks display etc.

What's your rough budget for rent?

Around £500 maybe £550

What's the area like just to the left (west) of 'Grange roundabout'? I THINK that's the one next to sainsburys? Post code is a DL3
