10 Best Places to Live in the United Kingdom

What are the best places to live in the United Kingdom? The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a country that any decent person loves to live. Also known as Britain, Great Britain, or the UK the country is structured in such a way that you can enjoy a meaningful life in any of its cities. Even then, the UK cities outclass themselves in terms of cost and standard of living and happiness. On these bases, we present the 10 best places to live in the United Kingdom.
10 Plymouth
A city you should consider for a living in the United Kingdom is Plymouth. This is a waterfront city on the south coast of Devon, England. It is located approximately 60 kilometres south-west of Exeter and 310 kilometres west-south-west of London.
The average salary of £27,502 in Plymouth is not bad. However, be prepared to spend some £1,762 of that on commuting and £10,512 on rent. And it costs an average of £223,965 to acquire your own property. Thus, the 261,400 residents of Plymouth may report a lower level of satisfaction with their day-to-day living. Nevertheless, they are happier to be living in a crime-free city. For the safety of lives and property that living in Plymouth guarantee, we consider it one of the 10 best places to live in the United Kingdom.
9. Salisbury
This is Salisbury, it is a cathedral city with a population of 40,302. Salisbury is located at the confluence of the rivers Avon, Bourne, and Nadder. The city in the southeast of Wiltshire, England is approximately 20 miles from Southampton and 30 miles from Bath. If you’re considering living in the United Kingdom, this city near the edge of Salisbury Plain is worthy of your consideration.
With an average salary of £26,502, all those living in this city should be happy. Of course, £1184 of that amount will go for accommodation. Earning that much and spending that less, residents of Salisbury should be among the happiest.
8. Glasgow
Our search for the best places to live in the UK takes us to Scotland. There we find Glasgow, the largest city and a port on the Clyde in west-central Scotland. This city, which is one of the greatest shipbuilding centers, is home to over 801,000 Glaswegians, many of whom speak the most Gaelic especially outside of the Highlands and Islands. The city should score even higher if population adds to a city’s happiness because it is the third most populated.
The average salary in Glasgow is £29,161 while some £1,929 is expected to be spent commuting. You could buy a home with an average of £126,200 while rent/mortgage will continue to gulp £9,048.
7. Cambridge
Famous for its university, Cambridge is one of the best places to live in the UK, for obvious reasons. Interestingly, the influx of academics into the city hasn’t raised the cost of living disproportionately. If anything, it only increases the happiness level of the resident of the top UK center for culture, traditions, education, and job opportunities.
The average cost of living in this prosperous city is about £2,000 per month. Depending on the side of the city where you live, the average monthly rent is £1,100. Compared with the opportunities that abound in the city, the transportation and utility costs are also reasonable. Cambridge is such a place you can live to find inspiration to advance your career.

The best place to live is Buckingham Palace. You are relatively safe from crime with tall fences and armed guards. You have plenty of spare rooms, a nice big garden and a lake, free rent and free taxi service. No need to go shopping since the shops come to you.

I once had the great misfortune to be short of petrol while making my way home to Carmarthenshire from Oxfordshire. I became hopelessly enmeshed in a bewildering tangle of roundabouts, mini roundabouts and little twisting roads that led nowhere, all on the outskirts of Swindon. I was apprehended by a woman Police Officerette in a patrol car who asked me, roughly "What the 'ell are you doing ?" After a brief explanation she gave me instructions which were supposed to lead to a petrol station but never did. I eventually found one myself, quite by chance. If we ever do become invaded by a foreign power I hope they go to Swindon where they will go aimlessly in circles for ever and ever, to be picked off from the sky by the RAF

I grew up in Plymouth! It's a great place to be a child growing up, a fabulous place to be a college or university student, and a lovely place to retire and grow old in... but for all those years outside of those stages... not so much. The majority of job opportunities sit squarely in hospitality (which are seasonal, and therefore attract the aforementioned college students, so you're competing with them,) or care work, which you've really got to be cut out for. Not many industry or 'professional' type career opportunities down there, so most young adults end up leaving the town to get better jobs in other parts of the country. And now you have the problem of 'Holiday Commuters' pushing up the house prices, because these people on six-figure salaries in London buy property down there for 'weekend getaways,' which pushes up the house prices and means the locals who grew up there now can't afford to buy a house *in their own town.* Meanwhile, the economy also slows down because all these Holiday Commuters have bought up all the decent houses but are hardly ever there to use the shops and local businesses, so they make less money.

I am an American who lives outside of Swindon, and honestly, it reminds me of an American city like Chicago, if you’re not from the area. You see people staring at you like they’re in a gang, looking like they’re about to make a move. Causing you to leave the scene for safety reasons, knife crime in Swindon doesn’t help. Graffiti absolutely everywhere even in the city center just makes it more depressing.

@becksgroom49 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the laugh at the end. Swindon is surrounded by beautiful places but that's it. Everyone leaves swindon to shop as the town centre is desolate with only shops like the Pound Shop and Primark - could have been better but the Council don't like making improvements.

@@rabiattoyin3113 You have got lovely places like Wightick Manor, Bantock Park, Penn, a theatre, an art Gallery ( it is not Paris or London of course but it is quite pleasant), Saint Peter Church, an hospital etc. Not far from Wolverhampton, you can take a bus to visit the Walsall Gallery ( free of charge) with paintings from Delacroix, Picasso, Gaugin, Matisse etc It is clean, spacious with a souvenir shop with a cafe near by. Wolverhampton It is about 20 minutes by train from Birmingham, you can take the tramway if you prefer ( it s a bit bit cheaper than the train). As Wolverhampton is in the Midlands, you have got easy access to Telford, Stafford, Shrewsbury, London, Manchester, Nottingham etc. The city is surrounded by lovely villages like Albrighton, Bilbrook etc : easy access by bus and trains. You have got also two big parks: East Park and West Park. Both being a short distance from the city centre. A cinema : the Lighthouse with regular Meetups and an excellent selection of films, cultural meetings etc. The city centre is a bit of a disgrace like many cities in England but there is potential and things are getting better. I heard it used to be a much better place ( a long time ago) with House of Fraser which closed a couple of years ago. The city centre is not the poshest place on hearth but people are usually friendly and helpful ( never had any problems). There is a Mark and Spencer, a Sainsbury ( a bit far from the city center though), and some regular shops you usually find in any city in the UK. There is a tramway from the city which goes to Birmingham as well.
