Love it. Great area, great neighbours, beautiful countryside, close proximity to a lovely market town. So glad we relocated here would never live anywhere else.

I love where I live, in a diverse city, neighbours and local people have been so willing to pitch in and help others, delivering shopping, collecting for food banks just being good sorts.
Lots of families with children as well as young singles, middle aged and us oldies, just a really good range of different people.

Where we live is a place that a lot of other people like to visit because we have so many eateries and independent shops and I really hope that they survive and the area is as vibrant after the pandemic as it was before.

Living in the lovely Welsh hills I am quite content. Lovely countryside all around.
Must be hard during lockdown living somewhere you don't like

all kippers and curtains

I understand the curtains, but kippers?

I wouldn`t go as far to say i love where i live,but i am more than happy here.
I used to live in a salubrious area for over 20 years which i wasn`t ever happy in.the neighbours were all kippers and curtains.
It`s strange how your neighbours make a difference to how happy you may be.

You are very lucky to have good neighbours as I have found out in recent years

I have got lovely neighbours and a good house but I don’t like where I live!

No, I like where I live.

Small market town, never lived further than five miles away.

Some might think it boring, but suits me.

Familiar little shops, low crime rate, apart from a few yobs shipped in from elsewhere who moan about lack of facilities. OK, move then.

Walking down the street always see someone to say hello to.

A decent community spirit.

I like where I live it’s full of quiet green spaces to walk my neighbours are all lovely and I love my house but I am in fairly close proximity to major roads and the traffic gets worse every year it’s the only thing that’s making me want to move.

Not at all! If anything, lockdown has shown that we’re very fortunate to live on north Wales coast with a lovely garden and good neighbours.

I have not liked where I live for a while but being in lockdown has made me realise that I like it even less . Does anyone else feel like this .
