When I worked in London for a decade until 2011 I noted that most of the
younger people I worked with came from every part of the UK except London,
while born and bred Londoners like me had long ago departed for places like
Crawley, Chelmsford and Cambridge.


Chelmsford is quite nice, Cambridge gorgeous. But Crawley? You'd have to be
pretty desperate to see that place as an improvement on London


For Chelmsford and Crawley the main attraction is cheaper houses and the
frequent rail service to London.
