Metrolink Rent Map

Metrolink Rent Map

Manchester-based digital agency Digital Media Team has put together a handy rental map of Manchester, showing the average monthly cost for a one-bedroom property based on the postcode of each stop on the Metrolink route. It’s not as shocking as the London Underground Rent Map (£2920pcm for a one-bed at Hyde Park Corner, anyone?), but there are a few surprises along the way. You can view the image in full by clicking through to it above, or keep scrolling for a full list of the prices by area.
