"Are you someone that actually does like where they live? Or if you had the opportunity to move would you?" We have 2 houses on here and the other in Florida. I love the Pennsylvania house it is in a mountain. But I get the winter doldrums and head to the Florida one. It's hard to choose.

No...I don't...fecking kids screaming their heads off 24/7
But to move I would have to sell house first |

Where I live is very convenient. 4 miles from Heathrow. 10 minutes walk from a tube line and bus links within a couple of minutes walk. Visually it looks like the Monday morning after Glastonbury. |

I don’t like the town we live in. There isn’t much to do around here but I like how close we are to other places we like to visit. I’d move to a different area if we didn’t have to stay here for family but I don’t think I’d move away from Scotland. It’s too pretty and plus the people are nice |

Sounds very familiar to my town |

"Left the concrete jungle of Milton Keynes for the coast of Cornwall almost six years ago - and apart from the fact that it's much harder to find playmates here, yes... "
Also left civilisation for Cornwall. For my vanilla side, can't beat it. Love it here.
But, feels like it's a bit of a kink graveyard at times. |

I like it, I'm in country side so it's nice for walks and scenery stuff only down side is the whole small town mentality stuff where everyone knows everyone and if you're a stranger expected get stared at for a bit and the whole talking behind people's backs like everyone about are wee gossiping granny's even though there not necessarily just old woman gossiping |

Love it, in the middle of two cities. Neighbours are quite (minus the kid running around at 2am everyday) and not the type to interfere with your life. And close to everything i could need |

Close enough to London that I can get in to the City in under an hour, far enough out that I’m still London outrageous London prices but quieter, much quieter and safer.
I’ve lived in 8 countries, travelled and worked in 50+
I picked here for the very fact that it is sleepy and chilled. I would move from my apartment but I think for now I’d stay in the area. |

Used to, but it's gone downhill in a hurry. Houses and flats that either families or OAP's had, have changed hands to house ex-offenders, addicts and those with mental health conditions. One feeds the other and more move away. It used to be the odd pub d*unk or house party causing a noise, now its sirens near every day with the emergency services wheeling people out, arresting or some tool is causing a fuss about a fiver. |

I have moved a lot over the years and lived in different places around England. Never really felt comfortable anywhere until I arrived in Scotland.
Only downside, I miss the ease of travelling from Heathrow and Stansted |

It’s an old mining village so there’s literally nothing here . Luckily we’re not too far from Edinburgh if we want to look at anything other than fields |

I love where I live, very rural but only an hour or so away from Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester with the beautiful Welsh hills about 5 mile across the border, of which I live smack bang on |

I upped sticks in September and moved from the south coast to the edge of the peak district in East cheshire and I'm absolutely loving it! We're out exploring the stunning countryside every chance we get and though I do miss the coast, I now appreciate it more when we visit!

Mostly we do like where we live but house building is slowly encroaching on the green land and the accompanying increase in traffic, delays due to roadworks etc and a move towards very unpleasant attitudes among a large minority of the inhabitants of this area are making it less attractive than it was. |

I love it small marker town surrounded by countryside and villages with thatched roofed cottages.
The only down side is the have and still are building so many new houses on the outskirts. But it's a lovely area to bring your children up but once they get to about 11 there is nothing for them to do. No cinema or bowling and we don't even have a public swimming pool now.
It is nice and quite for us oldies though |

Well it is certainly very strange. I know he was arrested a few years ago, not long after he moved in with his girlfriend ( she had been living on the lane for a few years with no problems!)
I am fairly confident he was either on dr*gs, or d*unk, or both when he was arrested, driving away from her house at about 2am and waking the whole lane up with his shouting and screeching of tyres etc. I have been told he was charged for various offences.
But now. When anyone on the lane gets in touch with the police about him. The police play it down all the time
Very strange |

If you are a coastal kinda guy like me you'd understand why I love where I live and work on the coast of Ayrshire. Views up and down the Ayrshire coast and across the firth of Clyde are glorious. Unfortunately for Ayr, it suffers from the Glasgow effect and given the wealth around some of Ayrs notable postcodes it's a shame the town centre is in such a mess. It's crying out for a bit of attention from the more wealthy residents I've always thought. |

I do but I don’t like the house, mostly because it’s a large house and it requires a lot of upkeep, particularly as it was a new build when my mum and her late partner bought it, and it wasn’t the best built! That said the size of it allows me and my children to live with my mum and to have 3 kids so I am lucky in that regard, and we have shedloads of forestry walks near us, and are about 10 minutes drive from the sea. |

In the main I like where I live, plenty of natural beauty and opportunities to explore nearby.
The downside however… being over an hour away from the nearest motorway, and no big events within about 1.5 hours drive |
