The best place to make a living in the UK is Blackburn, according to research by Statista.
Research comparing the average salary around the country with the average mortgage in the same place has found that Gloucester is the most expensive place to live, while Derby, Cambridge and Sunderland are far more comfortable.
The analysis doesn’t account for other parts of living in a place, like culture or transport links, which tend to favour bigger cities and places that are expensive. Instead, it looked purely at how easy it is to buy a house and still have cash to spare.
