Im quite happy where I live in rural leicestershire, however the govt wants the local council to allocate land for 11500 new houses, of which over 5000 are already planned, the local council refuses the planning but then gets overuled by govt inspectors. The local schools and doctors are already very full and the roads are fairly congested (as near the A5, A47 and M69).
You must be near Hinckley then? Johnd52 said:
North Yorkshire a mile or so off the "Helmsley TT" route. Great roads around here, but we are keeping up the pretence - it is a real dump so please stay away.
Me too, but the fascists in NY Police have bought 6 scamera vans which are increasingly appearing on some of the best roads round here 
Great roads in E Yorks too Welsh valleys since I was born, got a great network of friends, jobs not brilliant but pays the bills and allows me to do things I want to do. Living costs are low and not much traffic.
Also only have to go half hour to some of the best roads in south wales and an hour away some of mid wales best driving roads.
Don't think I will ever move from the area.

Im from East Yorkshire.
Nothing there hated it, glad I escaped, liked Leeds and stayed there for a decade, like London have been here 8 years, now thinking of finding some other way to do my work and sod off to Finland.
Might try Helsinki and get some land.

I drive from Ayles to Risborough and Wycome daily, and the main road between them isn't good. Neither is the road up to Bicester.
Are they still resurfacing the road on the way to Wycombe? I thought I was going to break my back on the ramps down that road in my gf's Twingo Sport! Much prefer the compliance of my M5! I was near Ris last weekend at The Little Kimble. Cool story Bro etc. Peak District, like living here, driving can be great but often isn't (traffic, pot holes, camera vans). Outdoor sports most things that could tickle your fancy and a fair few things you probably wouldn't want to do. Indoor sports a lack of facilities is a problem and finding likeminded people of a similar level often means traveling.

East Yorkshire, little village half way between hull and york, 30 minutes from each. I like the countryside living, couldn't cope with the hustle of cities. I do like it here, but, if those numbers come in, I'd be moving to the Yorkshire dales as quick as I could.
Market Weighton?
