‘Without Prejudice’ lol!
I personally would avoid - Campo de Gibraltar and La Linea (also maybe Algeciras comes into this too!)..
(Although they have smarted La Linea up a litte of late - esp the main shopping area).
My choices would be:
San Roque - pueblo
San Roque - Esacion (not too bad)
Guarro? - near Sotogrande?
Los Barrios? (Although might not suit all)
etc..
Basically - get down here, have a look around - see what is on offer re rentals and pick what suits you best.
Not all of the people like the same things all of the time!
If you are taking a job in Gib your work mates should be able to suggest things. (All but all will tell you it is exorbitant on the rock itself).
(I live further up the coast near Fuengirola but used to work nearby Gib and had friends in the area - but all rented in different places for different reasons).
Good luck!

All of above are within 1/2hr of coast.
Further inland: Castellar de la Frontera (old town - but full of hippies and drugs! New town - souless)
Jimena de la Frontera - lots of nobby expats - but pretty village. 40 mns tho..
