Didsbury is greater Manchester all right, it's actually in a fairly nice area close to Cheadle and Gatley on the way to the airport. Salford used to be rough a long time ago but is quite lively nowadays and Manchester is really a fine place.
Zone 2 is grim and boring - I don't do anywhere in London that I can't walk to from the flat or work unless I am going to the airport
