Depends which part. Without trying to cause offence to anyone on the board, DON'T buy a house in Pennywell, Town End Farm, Doxford park or any other areas that look like it. I can't stress this enough.

However, there are some gorgeous areas in Sunderland, such as near the coast and around the rural parts! The people are lovely, everything is so friendly and community-like. The city itself is always very busy and has all the shops you'd want and need + more. The football is amazing, we have the best UK stadium and always have more attendance than some of the bigger clubs.

Nightlife... I can't even begin to explain how amazing it is!
Go for it!
