Default interloper seeks advice

hiya folks

Im planning on moving down south in the summer. Quite like Fareham area but dont really know the surrounding area.

I am looking to rent a place.

What areas should I avoid like the plague.

Looking at area from otherside of portsmouth to fareham side of southampton.

thanx

If you do move anywhere in Southampton in the end, avoid Bassett and Shirley at all costs (SO16 area mainly)! I'm moving in July as I pretty much fear for my life here.

Shirley is fast turning into little Poland, i couldn't believe it when i went there the other day its like being in a different country.

i'd say keep away from millbrook, st. deny's, northam as well as basset like larry said, I'd say they are some of the worst areas of Southampton
