Best and Worst place to live in UK : Fri Oct 23, 2015 12:19 pm  

Sadly Bradford comes out worst and Kingston-upon-Hull second worst in the 2015 rankings. What do the residents of those places think? Agree or disagree? For those who like links: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/news ... -life.html

How can you compare a county(Berkshire which has a number of towns) with a town(Solihull)? Whats the criteria??

Go to somewhere like Cobham in Surrey (where the chelsea players live) and the champagne bill must be more than the 29K average wage in Edinburgh.

I'm just amazed that anyone is prepared to exchange their hard-earned cash for not just the Telegraph - but ANY newspaper.

"Sadly"? You seriously believe anyone in Bradford yearns the approval of the arsewipes of the Torygraph? You're as mad as them!

Alternatively did the residents of Solihull and Darlington realise they had been living the (Dally) dream? According to that places like Portrush and Portstewart on the Antrim coast are shizzle-holes which makes you wonder why various millionaires have had pads there.

"Just 15pc of people in the Orkney Islands work more than 45 hours a week"

I wonder how many hours the other four people work?

If Bradford was recommended by that rag I'd move

See from Twitter that the Wakefield newspaper is saying that Wakefield & Castleford worst place to live on criteria used in another report.

I live in Hull - educated to a degree level (1st in Business and Marketing), have a highly paid job (for the area) of 50k+, I live in a nice 4 bedroom detached house with my partner and 2 year old son. If I want to go out for a meal, I have an endless list of places I can go from quick fixes to Michelin Star within 20 minutes of my house. There are a host of bars, wine-bars, real ale pubs within, or in the vicinity of the City Centre if I want to go drinking with my friends. The local school to me has a good reputation and I will send my son there.

I love living in Hull, and some report in a newspaper, by somebody who looks at a few figures and comes up with saying its 5hit isn't going to change that
