  • Having visited all cities in England, I've put together a regional guide, ranking each and every one by house price from low to high. Here we take a look at the North of England, combining together the regions of Yorkshire and the Humber, North East England and North West England. The information presented comes from rightmove.co.uk and its data pertaining to sold property prices, so bear in mind this is time-sensitive, but correct as of September 2024.
    All footage is my own, and originates from my flagship channel, 4K Explorer, which you can check out here: -- / @4kexplorer

    Thanks Alex, you covered a lot of ground there, both physically and metaphorically.

    Leeds properties are more expensive than those in Manchester? Wow, this is a huge surprise.

      A quirk of where the very restricted boundaries of manchester city proper are drawn. In reality, the southern suburbs of 'greater manchester' are much more expensive than Leeds. Particularly those with a Cheshire post code.

      @@liamo8932 But Greater Manchester includes Salford, Bolton, Wigan and others including what used to be a small part of the West Riding of Yorkshire and is regarded as a ceremonial County. Also if it has a Cheshire postcode is it really in Manchester?

      @@stephenhodgson3506 I agree that greater Manchester is huge as a concept, but the strict boundaries of Manchester are tiny. The boundaries of Birmingham were allowed to expand over the years but manchester not so much. Theres no such thing as greater Leeds as it's a minnow city in comparison. Old Trafford is not in Manchester for instance. Places like Sale and Altrincham and Bowden are oriented around working in Manchester and much more expensive than Leeds or York

      Deansgate is the most expensive postcode outside the South East. Manchester’s wealthiest areas are in Trafford.

    In the 1970s York was one of the least expensive cities, prices lower than Newcastle, Sheffield and Leeds.

    AS an American, most of these cities were new to me. But my 3 year old did walk the walls of York in 1973 as well as parts of Hadrian's Wall. Fun video as usual Alex, Thank you. Any thoughts for a new series to reuse your footage?

      Ah lovely! I also visited York at a very young age. Thoughts for a new series? Not yet, just keeping to the prettiest towns in each county series, plus the one-off deep dive style videos.

    It is surprising that Liverpool is reasonable to live. Is it due to the type of employment pay? Thanks for showing the towns in Northern England. Although I am American, I miss the late Queen too.

    • @AlexinGreatBritain
      @AlexinGreatBritain  5 дней назад +1

      Yeah, Liverpool's good value for money. As far as I know, I believe it's only jobs in London that bump up the minimum wage to help with the cost of living.

    Funny that you should describe many of the places you name as 'Northern'. Most of them my Northumbrian mother and grandparents described as 'Midlands'. Most of them are closer to London than they are to Newcastle!

      Oh I know what you mean. You can get from London to Sheffield in just a couple of hours. Newcastle and Carlisle on the other hand... way different story!

      I get you, but when I lived in Hastings for a while and went back to my parents' in Hertfordshire for Christmas, I was asked if I was going "up North". I guess that would put Tunbridge Wells in the Midlands!

      According to last Census (2021) the city of Sheffield population (not metro area) is 556,000. As of July this year it's predicted to be around 606,000. Has Sheffield overtaken our friendly rivals in Leeds as Yorkshire's biggest city? _Cue lots of banter between the 'dee dars and Loiners!_ 😊

      @@PabloGarcia-hc8xq lt's all confusing - if you look up 3 or 4 sites listing the biggest cities in the UK you'll get 3 or 4 widely differing answers. Some are based on conurbations and some the supposed actual size of the city and none of them agree with the others.
