The UK towns named in top 20 'happiest places to live' in 2024 - and how much it costs to live there
manchestereveningnews.co.ukThe top 20 'happiest places to live' in the UK in 2024 have now been revealed as part of Rightmove’s annual Happy at Home Index.
The index, which has been running for 13 years, asks residents how they feel about their area based on several happiness factors and was completed this year by more than 35,000 people.
Woodbridge in Suffolk has been crowned the happiest place to live for the first time. Residents of Woodbridge scored the town particularly highly for feeling that they are 'able to be themselves' in the area, the community spirit, friendliness and access to essential services such as doctors, or schools.
In second place is the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames - which was last year’s winner. Hexham in Northumberland, which has also previously topped the study, came third.
