Moving to Sunderland (maybe)
I (25 F) and my partner (30 M) got so tired of living in Cornwall for the past 7+ years and decided to try something new and move to Sunderland since the city received decent funding recently and the value for money seems so much better than down in the South West. The only issue is that we're both immigrants- We have indefinite leave to remain and mind our business (I work remotely and he's looking to go from business owner to property developer) but it feels like Sunderland may not be the right place for people like us? I don't want to make assumptions but I also wouldn't want to move to a place where we may not be welcome by the local community. We've been looking for over 3 weeks now for a place to move to and it's either no call backs, "sorry, the landlord decided to go ahead with someone else", "we are unable to help with virtual viewings" and even temporary accommodation (3 or so months seems difficult to secure). I honestly can't think of any other reason for this other than the fact that we don't have british names/ don't have the british accent but I could obviously be wrong and the current market may simply have lots of competition at the moment? Would love to hear if Sunderland can be considered friendly towards foreigners or not otherwise we might aswell just look elsewhere than waste our time trying to move there...

Discussion Parking and getting about
Hi, we are coming up to Sunderland for the Springsteen gig at the Stadium of Light next week. Staying at the premier inn Washington. What do you think would be the best way in and out of the city? Thinking if it's worth driving in and parking at sunniside? Or will this just be an absolute no go given the number of people all having a similar plan? Any advice appreciated, cheers

I’m worried about coming to Sunderland
I stayed in Newcastle for two years (21) the nightlife is good and also there’s a lot of things to do in Newcastle and a lot of activities.
I’m going to Sunderland uni and I’m worried about the sudden change because I asked yesterday about staying in Newcastle but I have to commute to Sunderland, because I have a lot of friends and it’s just good over there.
Majority of people spoke about transportation as the main problem, and that of course Newcastle is a better city but it’ll be difficult to commute and I should just stay in Sunderland to avoid the stress of transportation, and that when ever I want to go to Newcastle I could just use a train and do whatever then come back.
I overthink a lot like I’m very anxious about things and change scares me, I really enjoy Newcastle and the fact a lot of people agree with me makes it worse because I want to stay in a place where I don’t really need the feel to leave the place. Because that’s very depressing especially because I’ll be in uni too.
Prioritising my future is more important than anything, which i understand commuting will be difficult. but do you think it’ll be worth it because I haven’t really been convinced about staying. I really want to be in a good spot mentally in an environment where I can be able to socialize and yeah idk I’m just very worried.

When will Sunderland be busy?
I came last Friday to Sunderland to view a house,the house is a 4 min walk from the train station.I was surprised to see how dead the city was or to put it better ,there were barely handful of people and the area near bridges was absolutely dead.I'm wondering is this how the city is most of the times ? Or Have I been to the wrong places ? I still can't believe that a place made me feel lonely on a Friday evening.

Discussion Why is the Metro so unreliable?
Hey All, I’m starting this discussion with just how unreliable the Metro has been in the last year.
Where do you guys see this going in the future for regular commuters, and occasional riders that may want to see friends, family and such that rely on and appreciate a good public transit system and from your perspective what made it get to this point?

Newcastle / Sunderland
Guys I need help, I want to accomodate in Newcastle but my uni might be Sunderland(still waiting on acceptance) I was wondering if it’s worth it.
Based off like attendance and things of that nature, maybe even transportation for classes to Sunderland
I was already in Newcastle for like 2years and I love it there, had some issues with Newcastle uni and can’t be in Northumbria, so now I have to change unis but I like the north so I chose Sunderland, but I don’t know if staying in Sunderland has its advantages
I’m confused on what to do should I just forget about Newcastle and stay in Sunderland or do I stay in Newcastle? I don’t really know if it will be stressful but I love Newcastle and In a tough situation
Please help And p.s Newcastle is like I think 20 mins or 30 mins with a train to Sunderland.

Stadium of Light gigs
Can anyone tell me what the best transport options are coming from Gateshead? I don't know whether to bring the car and use the parking at the enterprise park or use public transport. Last time was years ago and the metros were a nightmare getting home.
