So not only do I get to be sad I don’t live any of those places, I am also sad I can’t afford to live any of those places.

To be fair Chorley apparently has cheaper housing and average rent prices than Stirling, if you can bring yourself to choose 17th place over 12th!

Chorley you can’t be serious.

Sorry I couldn’t resist. Bargain!
