Moving to Bury

North of Manchester is the vibrant town of Bury. Since the introduction of the Manchester Metrolink the town has only grown in popularity and Bury’s world famous open air market draws visitors from all over the country. Bury has been named one of the best town for families to live in the UK and with its eclectic mix of scenery, celebrated industrial heritage, and affordable house prices, it isn’t hard to understand why.

The Bury property market is very buoyant and many young families flock to the area to benefit from the great balance of urban and rural living, as well as favourable property prices. Compared to other Manchester property prices, living in Bury is achievable. Flats start at £70,000 but the real hit with first-time buyers are the traditional red brick terraces. Properties of this nature (with two-bedrooms) start at a similar price as one-bedroom flats. Semi-detached houses are upwards of £90,000.

Schools in Bury

As well as a number of wonderful pre-schools and nurseries, there are an incredible number of primary schools in Bury. A vast majority of the primary schools are feeder schools into specific secondary schools, so it can be best for parents to do their research before settling. Some of the most popular primary schools include Old Hall, Lowercroft, Mersey Drive and St Mary’s CofE.

There are six secondary schools located directly in Bury and a vast number on the outskirts. Broad Oak High School, Castlebrook High School and Elton High School all ‘require improvement’ according to Ofsted. However, Bury CofE High School is ‘good’ and Derby High School, ‘good with outstanding features’. However, St Gabriel’s RC High School is by far the most popular and ‘outstanding’ across the broad in the eyes of Ofsted.
