Hi all,

I'm looking at various jobs currently, I guess once I've secured a job that would remove choice, but similarly I would like some advice on which cities would be affordable before I go crazy and apply for many jobs.

Things I'm looking for:

-Somewhere with a decent transport links within the city.

-Affordable rent (if even possible these days) - would pay more for studio/1bed, can't see myself living with random people.

-Young-ish crowds (I'm not a drinker, but I like to eat good food/coffee + gym + running)

-Friendly people

My salary is £42k a year, I'm single (36m) (~£2500 after tax + pension)

Look forward to hearing your opinions.

Cheers.
