Nottingham's lace and lively rental market

Nottingham has one of the highest proportions of privately rented homes of any English city outside London, driven by two major universities and a large city-centre apartment sector. The city has significant Victorian terrace stock in Radford, Forest Fields, and Lenton — areas with high student and HMO density — alongside more affluent owner-occupied suburbs in Wollaton (NG8) and West Bridgford (NG2). The NG postcode area also extends to Mansfield (NG18) and Newark-on-Trent (NG24), making it one of the larger EPC coverage areas in the East Midlands.
