The best places to live in the UK in 2021 have been determined by new research from Good Move. The findings rate the UK's top locations based on seven factors: population density, crime rates, amount of green space, house prices, Ofsted ratings and disposable income.

Using these metrics, which are considered important to Brits looking to relocate, the research found that Cumbria, Devon, Cornwall and Durham were among the best places to live in the UK in 2021.

When it comes to crime rates, Devon and Cornwall had the lowest scores, followed by North Yorkshire, suggesting they are a safer bet.

In terms of crowds, Cumbria, Dyfed-Powys in Wales and Cleveland had the lowest population numbers, if a quiet existence is top priority. These were compared to London, the Thames Valley and West Yorkshire who have the densest populations.

2020 saw the nation fall back in love with walking and the outdoors and, for many, access to green space has shot up their priority list when it come to moving house. The South East of England came out on top for highest green space per person. This region includes Buckinghamshire, East Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Kent, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex.

"With the pandemic shifting what Brits are looking for in a property, with more and more people looking to move away from cities and into more rural spacious properties, we expect an even bigger influx of people looking to move in the New Year," says Nima Ghasri, Director at Good Move.
