Harborne, Birmingham?

DH and I are a young-ish couple (late twenties, early thirties) looking to settle down in what would hopefully be our forever home. We're thinking Harborne could be an ideal town/suburb for us, but were wondering what people thought it was like to live in?

-is there a nice community feel?
-is it possible to make friends, or do people keep to themselves?
-does it feel like living in a town, or like living in a city?
-are houses with drives/garages really that rare?
-what are state schools like in the area?
-is it a good place to raise children?

If she's willing to consider a walk that long then she should definitely also look in Bearwood and Stirchley/Cotteridge if you can.

I don't know if it makes any difference to your DD, OP, but be aware that Bearwood is not in Birmingham. It is in Sandwell MBC.
