Unfortunately, I don't live in England, so I don't know which city/town I would suggest. Personally, I wouldn't choose London, because it is too expensive.

Hello NorthernStar

Thanks for your interaction

Did  you ever have the chance to travel to England?

Yes, I have been to London twice, for holiday. London is very nice but it's so expensive. I wouldn't consider it for an expatriation. I would consider a medium dimension town.

Hello Nothernstar

Thank you!

Have a great day

I live in Sheffield and I like it.  If I had to live in another city, it would be Leeds, York, Nottingham, Manchester or Newcastle.  Big cities but beautiful.  I prefer the British people from the north 

Hello Joyfik

wuld love london because there are lot of blacks

Hello friends,

If I am given a chance to choose a place to spend my life, I will choose LEEDS-BRADFORD twin city.

It has the best of both worlds, this is developed and advanced like London , best colleges and universities but inexpensive from cost of houses to used cars, food and restaurants. People are tolerant and friendly and live a very simple life, they know Muslim and Pakistani culture and different communities have blended well in west Yorkshire.

Wonderful countryside with in walking distance form everywhere, only one problem here, residents have a very different and difficult to understand English accent.

each city in UK have different style

London is by far the best.

Hello kenjee,

Portsmouth isn't a separate island from the UK, and it is around 4 hours away from London.

In all kindest respects,

Hi.  I am from NY in the US and my husband was born in the Dominican Republic but lived in NY all his life.  We moves to the Dominican Republic this year to experience his native culture.  We have a 6 year old daughter and thought it would also be good for her to have hands on life experiences and learn about her heritage.  We have decided that in the next 2 years we wish to relocate to either England or Australia and we are trying to gather some information to help us make a better informed choice.  That being said, we were hoping to use your expertise and experiences to answer some questions:

1. What would be the best city to live in with a family?  This should encompass a reasonable rent, good schools,safe neighborhood, public transportation fairly easily accessible and things for a family to do.

2. What are the typical average costs for things like groceries, rent (prefer a 2 or 3 bedroom with private yard) phone, cable, tv, school, clothing, transportation.

3. Do most people have cars or use public transit?
4. How is the job market? 
5. Does anyone have information on qualifying to migrate to Englad/ Great Britian?

I apologize for all of the questions but we will greatly appreciate any information you can provide.

Happy Holidays to all!!!

London ofcourse

This all depends what you wan to do, and how you like to live.
London is the place for wild excitement and the best salaries, but it's really expensive.

York is probably my favourite city in England and, as one poster already mentioned, people in the North tend to be very friendly.
I should declare a bias as I'm from the North.

hi
    totally agree. i live in england also.
a few suggestions;
                              1. manchester - airport links, good shopping, nightlife, hotels,etc
                              2  sheffield - as above plus road and rail links.
                              3. birmingham.   
                              4. liverpool - music, culture, architecture,
                              5  huddersfield - countryside / peak district,etc
                              6. leeds - most of above.

Not sure what you are trying to say....please say again thank you.

In March, I am going to move in Durham (in the north of England) for a short stay (three months) and I'm itching to visit it! Does anyone know something about this little city?

Hello,
I understand some of you know Bradford. I have been reading very bad reviews about Bradford itself, people on surveys are very disappointed, they say there is risk to stabbed on the train or be assaulted, especially if woman or old.
Is it really like this?
I should move there for work reasons, but, I am really afraid. Are there any elegant and nice areas?
Hopefully is not so bad as described on internet and journals.

Hi Damian,

Portsmouth is a Island. I live there. It is called Portsea Island. You have to cross water to get on to it.

It is only 1hr 30 mins from London. I do not know which Portsmouth you are talking about.

It is right down South,

Coz my beloved live there..so its hear problum

Hi Damian,

Please take note!!!!!!           

  Portsea Island in Portsmouth, England
Portsea Island is a small, flat and low lying island just off the south coast of England. The island is totally within, and contains a large proportion of, the city of Portsmouth. Wikipedia.

See it is a Island.

i love Sheffield. i like everyday in Sheffield .

What do you love about it? What does it have, that other cities don't have?

i also wish to stay in UK...
which is the easiest way to be in uk..
am an accountant from Dubai but with indian passport....

I would have to say london. Given the fact that its the only place I've visited. I loved how all the museums are free. I loved where I stayed,by Buckingham palace and how I could walk to picadilly circus and to the theatre.  The bad part of it was a spent almost all of my inheritance in Europe. But well worth it!!!

1. London
2. Manchester
3. Bristol
4. Liverpool/Birmingham/Oxford/Cheltenham

London. If you can afford it.

There is no one answer to this question, it depends on the individual and their requirements.

That's true. We all have different expectations and requirements.

If you could share with us which are the requirements that makes you choose the city in which you live, that would be also helpful

London is my choice. Pros: easy to go around (no need to have a car), night life, entertainment, easier to find jobs, people's mindset (away more open minded than the rest of the UK), if you speak more than 1 language you can get a job out of it, multicultural.
Contra: super expensive life expense (particularly rent and food), the weather is pretty bad and crazy rush hour in the morning (8-9am) and in the evening (5-7pm).

Hello,

On one hand, London has by far the most on offer in terms of what you could do during your leisure time.
On the other hand, London has the highest rental prices I have ever seen. All the other living costs are reasonable, but far away from being cheap.
--> If you have a good job with a good income, you will love London. But if you struggle with money, you may have a very hard time.

Cheers
