As long as you're not set on the idea of living in Leeds you could consider Shipley. It's about 12-13 miles from Leeds but train links are excellent (trains take about 15 mins and there are 3 or 4 an hour). I live in a place called Victoria Mills and there are plenty of apartments to choose from. Worth a look if you struggle to find anything in and around Leeds.

You should have said GCM, I could have waved at you from work when I was still at the Revenue.

Not a bad shout though, although that line up to Skipton was never the most reliable in adverse weather.

Unfortunately I can see that grim looking building from my balcony! Fair point about the weather though, a few hours of rain and the trains are off because of a puddle on the line in Kirkstall!

Hey!

I am starting a job in Leeds in the next couple of months and so am looking to rent within a few miles of the city centre. I'm currently looking in Armley - any good or bad points about this area, or can anyone recommend other areas I could be looking? I'll be renting a 2 bed flat.

Cheers in advance!

That Ben Westwood to Leeds rumour was true then.

Can I ask where you live, LFCRhino?

As someone who worked in Seacroft for ten years, the area is no better or worse than a lot of other urban areas of Leeds such as those to the west or south of the city.

If you think Seacroft is bad, all I can say is that you really need to get out more...
