our local train station has decent connections. it goes from manchester to liverpool. i can be in manchester or liverpool in about 20-30 mins. not bad!
my place of work is 18 miles away so have to travel 36 miles each day but its not really a problem. the motorway is about 3 miles away and if everything is clear, i can normally get there in 25-30 mins.
the little place i live is actually really nice. at the end of my road is a massive country park type thing. its lovely. i live on a private estate (its about 10 years old now!) and the people here are lovely. its really quiet here and there doesn't seem to be any problems *touch wood*
i'm quite happy enough to stay here for a very long time tbh
City centres represent convenience, congestion and can be crowded!
it's not too bad here
Wellington City 179,466
Lower Hutt City 97,701
Upper Hutt City 38,415
Porirua City 48,546
Total four cities 364,128
L.Hutt, U.Hutt and Porirua are the outer cities.
There are two pubs, a fish and chip shop, a primary school, a Costcutter (shop), a chemist, a butcher's and a baker. There's also a farm that sells vegetables.
We live in a brand new house and it's perfect.
Infinite Part Deux: Also jealous, that scenery is amazing.
I live about 10 mins walk from the centre of Cardiff. I like it because although I'm on quite a quiet residential street (so no noise at night unless the neighbours choose to have a barney) I'm so close to all the shops and nightlife there's always something to do and everything's convenient. Plus being in Cardiff you're not too far away from a park, the countryside or even the beach really. Overall I'm pretty happy...still love to live in Wellington one day though.
I'm hoping so, tho I am off put somewhat by stories of student houses being broken into and having messy streets more than other places.
Ah well, not a choice really as I cant afford city centre flat anymore, gonna have to get used to having to walk more than 10 minutes to uni/shops in the morning :eek: Shoukd be a lot quieter than where I live now tho, least there isn't a nightclub opposite my new house haha

I really love it here, we just moved last December and it's such a friendly environment. I can't really describe it in just a few words, it's just awesome all around.
The only thing I miss is not having a grocery store within a walking distance. All we have is a gas station and another one being built.
I can drive to 3 cheap grocery stores within a 5 minute radius though.
My area has a common near by and is really multicultural. It's great for being vegan, as places cater for you... Even better if you love South Asian food. It feels safe, is on the Northern Line, it's affordable and friendly.
I can't think of anywhere else in London I would rather live. This area is perfect for me.
it's hideously boring when you're my age, but my sisters love it now they've left home, and only have to be there a bit at a time.
I love where i live but i wish we could afford a slightly bigger house with a slightly bigger garden but unf i don't have the odd million lying round to enable that. Plus the schools are a bit crap so if i did it would all need to go on private education - humpf
