Best place to live in Gateshead area

[DaGuv]

I am looking at moving to this area over the next 6 months. I brief experience of the area mainly the low fell area on Durham road. This seems a quite up market area and a good place to live. I have been told to avoid areas live Sherriff Hill, dunston and Teams. Any advice welcome.

Thanks for all your advice, I have started looking at properties in the low fell area along durham road, some nice flats at a development called forster court. I did look at a flat near the tyne on the Staithes development, its right on the river with great views but there is nothing outside of the development and their are no shops in the small development or pubs. Right outside is a dodgy looking area...I think that may be teams? So low fell it is. Thanks.

DONT move to Teams. It’s full of chavs, druggies and scumbags. One of the worse areas in Gateshead.

Look at low fell area which is probably the best part of Gateshead. All depends on your budget.
