Is a nice and safer place to live, all shops could be found easily in Bristol. Living costs are cheaper than London, this is so great. However, lesser nice restaurant is available, and Bristol is a bit small so that sometimes it would be a bit bored.

Having come from London, I think Bristol is an absolutely fab city with loads of things going on, and can (and did!) happily live there. The shopping is good, with two shopping areas, one in the city centre, and another a bit further out. I think of it like a mini-London, so there's loads of interesting and quirky things to do, e.g. the cat cafe, board game bar, AirHop, and the tonne of live music anywhere and everywhere. The harbour is really nice for both the day and night time. The only small issue I have is the public transport, where busses take a round-about route and often take a while to arrive and get to places. I do sometimes miss the convenience of the tube. But at least they accept cash on the bus. And busses also run to Bath for really cheap tickets, so it's easy to have a day out and explore nearby places - as long as you keep an eye on the time and don't miss the last bus!

Bristol has everything you want a city to offer and more. For art lovers there are galleries to visit, for those who enjoy music there are hundreds of gigs across the city, those who like a night out there are clubs on every corner, and for those who like a good pint there are hidden pubs down every side street. A variety of architecture, colourful buildings and street art bring this amazing city to life.

Bristol is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best city in the UK - nay, the world. It is like London condensed into about a 1/16th of the size. There is always something to do, always something to see, always something fun happening. Who wouldn’t want to live in a city sprinkled with original Banksy pieces? Or numerous cat cafes/pubs? Or spectacular architecture (Will’s Memorial Building, Clifton Suspension Bridge)? It is a live, buzzing city with something for everyone.

Great, compact city that is easy to get around and hop to and from different points of interest. You can never be bored in Bristol and if you are, you’re just not looking are enough - this city really never sleeps.

The city is just the right size to feel like a cool city but without the hustle and bustle. I've always loved how green and colourful it is; it has a very fresh and welcoming vibe. A walk along the hardbourside or a cycle along the Ashton path can lift anyone's apirits. There's always lots to so, from concerts to poetry nights to all the random festivals along the summer streets. I think what's best about it, though, are the hills. Yes, they can be a pain to climb on your way to work every day, but the views they give you! And man, do they keep you fit.

Bristol is an amazing student city full of music art fashion and food. Bristol offers a range of nightclubs such as thekla , a venue on a boat , pryzm, SWX Agora and many more! Bristol is also an amazing location for art featuring some of the most famous works of Banksy. Food varies from pizzas to falafels . One of the most characteristic things about Bristol is definitely the suspension bridge which is a perfect sport to view the annual balloon fiesta!

Bristol is a beautiful city with great vibes and people. The street art is incredible and even a 2 day festival dedicated to it allowing artist from all over to get involved. There is a great night life from evening meals, cocktail bars, pubs or clubs. The music scene is amazing and a huge variety of different genres and great events to match each taste. Theres also loads to do during the day such as musuems, different activities, shops or walks in local parks which there are many with all great place to spend the day chilling. The people make Bristol everyone is so friendly and relaxed and is always up for a good time. I love living in Bristol and always recommend it.

Bristol is a unique, vibrant and quirky city. With two universities there is a strong presence of young adults around the city but with that comes a creative care free culture and has made Bristol a hub for new business and innovation.

Bristol is an incredible, vibrant and lively city. Whether its a sunny day and you want to go for a walk in Brandon Hill park (5 minute walk from city center!) or spend a day shopping in Cabot Circus its got everything. All areas within a short walk of each other have very different vibes meaning the city has it all. With delicious independent restaurants and pubs scattered around the city, especially on the quaint King Street, you will never be bored. And a night out, whether it is cheesey student nights on the Triangle or big DJ's at Motion Bristol has it all!

Vibrant city! Plenty to do from the aquarium, shopping centres parks and bars. Lots to see and plenty of quirky independent businesses with lots to offer. See lots of cool graffiti dotted around the city including some pieces by Banksy!

Bristol has a good artistic atmosphere. Lots of beautiful artwork over the city including Banksy’s and a lot of historical buildings are preserved. Many restaurants and fun things to do like AirHop and mini golf. But it is an expensive city to live in, not too far off from the cost of living in London.

Bristol is possibly one of the best cities for students and young adults. It has so much to offer from great nightlife, food, regular transportation. Of course you have the shopping centre, Cabot circus, that has a range of shops, restaurants, cinema, and mini golf. Bristol is also a very diverse city and the combination of cultures is great. Would definitely recommend.
