Hi all - I recently received an apprenticeship offer around Freshbrook (being vague for privacy) and needed help in deciding where to live (assuming I take the offer, I have another pending but I'd like to be prepared)

Essentially, where is nice? Where should I avoid? It's entry-level so I won't have the best income but i'm not fancy i'd just like to be safe! (take-home pay of under 20 grand). I hear Shaw is nice, and close, but would I have trouble even finding a decent 1 bed/1 bath affordable?

I also don't drive yet so a bus journey under 50 min is preferred but Swindon seems well-connected!

Any advice appreciated :)

EDIT: I don't smoke, have pets, etc. and don't mind sharing or being alone
