Birmingham University itself is divided into two campuses, EDGBASTON and Selly Oak, but most of the majors are taught in EDGBASTON campus. If you rent a house in Selly Oak, it's near Aldi and Sainsbury's supermarkets on Bristol Road, and it's close to Boda's east gate and south gate. Selly Oak district has many Indians and Pakistanis, and the natural law and order is general, but the law and order in all districts near Birmingham University is generally good. Harbor and EDGBASTON are mainly white areas, with good public security and people's quality. Harbor and EDGBASTON districts are closer to the west and north gates of Boda.
The key to renting a house depends on the landlord and the tenant in the same room. Whether there is an alarm system or not is not the most important thing.
Many people ride bicycles, but more people drive. You don't need a car to live near the school. The school has a place to store bicycles for free, but the safety of the cars is not guaranteed.
