One of Glasgow’s slogans is “People Make Glasgow” and the city is known for its friendly and welcoming people.

Where to move in Glasgow

Glasgow has a variety of different districts that all bring different benefits to residents. Hillhead, in the West End, is very popular with young professionals, students, and also young families.
