About Quays
Quays is a waterside neighbourhood built for eating out and socialising. The tram network and cycleways here mean you can genuinely get around without a car, which makes commuting straightforward.
Crime rates are remarkably low, and the neighbourhood draws young professionals — especially those with flexible or office-compatible work. You'll find two Good-rated schools nearby, plus Outstanding primaries in the area.
Flats and terraces sell above the prices you'd see in surrounding neighbourhoods, thanks to the newer waterside developments. Rents are more affordable than Hulme or Gorse Hill & Cornbrook though, which helps balance things out. Transport costs also run well below the UK average, offsetting a slightly higher council tax bill.
