Working in Paisley

I am currently applying to work at Alexandra Royal Hospital in Paisley. I haven't been to the area yet since I'll be coming from abroad, so I'm looking for suggestions on living. I heard West Paisley is rougher than the East, so I'm considering renting in West Glasgow or the city center. But again, I'm not really familiar with the areas and commute, so I'd love to hear from you guys. Thank you!
