[@dr.abraham_mallela]

Informative video as always , but I think as with any city , there are neighbourhoods which are nice and descent , while there are some which are a total no go. I think its better to research and experience the ground reality.

[@AbsolutelyAshika]

That’s such a good point Dr. Abraham. Thank you for sharing this.

Hi Ashika, How is Cambridge for living? We are moving to Cambridge in May. Also, we are a family of 3 and my husband has been offered a package of 90k pound yearly. Is it sufficient to live in Cambridge? Can you please suggest?

[@vanaxel]

Whats your husbands job?

[@SwapnilRaneGoTravelite]

@nilanjana - It's safe but expensive.

[@sugarbomb26]

The city center is stunning!!

[@johnvasey]

I've lived in Huddersfield for years. Yes the town center has gone down hill. Which town hasnt? Retail for most towns is dead, having being killed off by online shopping. If you like coffee shops this is the place. There are lots of them. Also the people are typical northerners. They dont suffer fools gladly but are always there to help if need be. The condition of the roads leaves alot to be desired however 15 minutes outside the town center you are surrounded by the most beautiful countryside of anywhere in the country.

[@balwantrai2386]

I'm coming as a doctor in Huddersfield, hopefully the city is not as bad as it's made up in internet

[@nikhilkasbe6486]

When I saw the Liverpool name on the list, I was shocked. Being in this city for a month, I never knew these things. Maybe I never search anything like things. Anywayz thank you Ashika for your inputs.😊

[@AbsolutelyAshika]

I'm so glad you're writing this. Like I said, its always important to get both sides. But thank you so much for your input!

[@seantuaima]

Yeah Liverpool is a dump mostly it is great for the weekend and shopping mainly that's all.

[@markdoherty8161]

@@seantuaima don't agree. Great city. Has its problems but so does the other big UK cities. I've been to Birmingham and didn't like it. Been to Manchester on a few occasions and found the people really rude and the city very dirty not to mention a lot of crime. Very overatted city IMHO.

[@seantuaima]

@@markdoherty8161 I lived there for a few years and I found it so boring I did lots of different things to keep me busy, the people there are so fixated on living there they do not like people that have a more defined taste or individuality. Most people in Liverpool think very much in similar ways and they tend to be very opinionated about comparing boring Liverpool to everywhere else in the UK. There is no real character about the place apart mainly from the city centre which is mainly more excited for the weekend. Most of the areas in Liverpool are very deprived and soulless trust me, it's very overrated and depressing to live there!

[@markdoherty8161]

@@seantuaima I think you could say that about all the other major cities in the UK. Yes it has its deprived areas but so does Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds etc. Even London has its deprived areas. Liverpool has suffered from lack of investment which the government is mainly to blame. Scousers are the friendliest people I've met in the UK. It has its problems no doubt but I think people always magnify Liverpool's problems much more than other places. Look at Manchester and Salford just up the road from Liverpool? The two cities have had billions of pounds pumped into them and they are dumps. Really grim and depressing places and the people are not very nice there. Just because a lot of big developments have been built there they're still boring cities. I spent a week in Birmingham, the second city, and my God what a depressing place. Have heard really bad stories of places like Leeds, Bradford Sheffield etc but no one highlights these other cities as much as they do with Liverpool. I know many people who have studied in Liverpool and people who regularly visit Liverpool and they all loved the city.

[@injuringchip3161]

You forgot a Luton pointer: don't plan to use buses, especially at later times or past Bramingham on L&D. They are constantly late, packed and/or breaking down.

[@AbsolutelyAshika]

Oh yikes. That doesn't sound very nice. Any suggestions on how to get around it?

[@injuringchip3161]

@@AbsolutelyAshika not really. A lot of people on the 24 are students so it's probably much quieter after the Luton Sixth Form stop. If the bus breaks down, it's probably best to just weigh up your options and either wait for the next one or just hope you're close enough to walk it.

[@tracy6568]

So true! Can't begin to tell you how many times the buses ( for me z bus and number 31 ) don't turn up and having to wait and hope another will come even during the day!

Luton is the worst place to live in England!

[@markdoherty8161]

Sorry, I stumbled across your video and was very surprised to see Liverpool on the list. I don't live there but have been visiting the city for over 30 years and can say that its one of the best and safest cities in the UK. Wondering why you don't have Manchester on your list as its crime rate is much higher than Liverpool's. Liverpool is without doubt one of the best cities in the UK. Liverpool has its problems but its always highlighted much more than other cities. Just wondering why you reference Manchester also when talking about Liverpool and Huddersfield in terms of distance? Why is Manchester so important?

What about Bradford?

Not in the top 10 but you can check here crimerate.co.uk/west-yorkshire/bradford

[@mamatapehlwani7011]

I think they should not be categorised as worst, could say unsafe places to live in the UK. Crime is everywhere.

[@AbsolutelyAshika]

Fair point Mamata.

[@TexasbyStorm]

There are plenty of places that are worst, worst schools, worst transport availability, worst shops available, worst job market, worst attitude toward different ethnicities. More crime is just a wedge of the things that can make some place bad to live. No reason to mince words. The fact people have to tip toe around carefully choosing their words shows just how unstable the fragile emotions people have these days are.

[@georgedowns4034]

@TexasbyStorm Peterborough has great transport connections and so does Liverpool

[@fiofreddy7201]

I kinda don’t agree with Huddersfield being unsafe. As to the other cities and towns. Yes watch out. I have lived in most of them and Huddersfield too, I’d say by far that is the most beautiful and calmest town beside the odd teenagers fights. It’s just like any other town of city which has abit of crime in it and not to a major level, so visit Huddersfield. You won’t be disappointed esp on it’s scenery. Also the worst rated town/city in the UK is Cleveland, with more crimes than London at the moment, so stay clear!

[@shaan7600]

Liverpool?? Dont think so!!

[@AbsolutelyAshika]

I’d love to know why

[@markdoherty8161]

@@AbsolutelyAshika a recent headline in the Daily Mirror newspaper stated that Liverpool is now rated as the best city to live in the UK and the city that is most popular with people wanting to live there. Every big city has its problems but Liverpool is quite safe. Liverpool was neglected for many years but has improved massively in recent times. A city with huge potential and needs a lot more investment and a better, forward thinking local council to match its true potential but still a great city with very friendly people. Still has work to do. Like every big UK city it has its deprived areas but also has some beautiful places.

[@georgedowns4034]

What about the greenery and great transport links in Peterborough? I've been there and I have seen some decent looking neighbourhoods. Sure it's not perfect but I hardly think it's very logical to label it as one of the worst. I mean just curious, but have u actually been there?
