If you have been or lived in london you might probably understand the reasons behind its vote as number one worst place to live in the UK.
From Dailymail:
Lots of Londoners are fed up of the city because of queuing, rocketing house prices, the chore of commuting, the dangers and pure exhaustion of living there.
‘But in contrast there is a lot of snobbery there too, which makes London hated. Contributors complained about gold iPad cases on sale in Mayfair, and about the fact that Londoners have no idea what’s going on elsewhere in the UK.’
Bradford, Chipping Norton, Southampton and York were also slated and made the top five, with Bradford being described as ‘a city with a giant hole in its heart – literally and metaphorically’
.
A spokesman said: ‘The reasons behind the nominations for the towns include everything from grinding poverty to unbearable snobbery, but are united by the common feeling that these attributes have a very real impact on quality of life – and enjoyment of life.
‘The survey is proudly unscientific, and based on emotion, as much as all the usual crime statistics, house prices, local facilities, transport and schools.’
The book’s predecessor, Crap Towns, named Hull as Britain’s least desirable area in 2003, but the town was listed as ‘not so crap’ in the latest edition.
Other towns which won praise for having improved since 2003 were Bedford, Liverpool, Morecambe and Hackney
