Manchester, a city of about half a million people, is famous for a number of things. It was the first industrialized city, the first programmable computer was built there, and Alan Turing, the mathematician who made that computer possible, was born there. But most people are probably more familiar with Manchester as a center of football (soccer) ma...
Aberdeen is a coastal town in Scotland, and while it’s the northernmost city on this list, it still enjoys the U.K.’s oceanic climate with cool, rainy winters and mild summers. Because it’s so far north, Aberdeen also has long winter nights and long summer days — enjoying nearly 18 hours of daylight in the high summer. Known as the “Granite City,” ...
Due west of London and just across the River Severn from Wales, Bristol is an old port city that now thrives in the creative media, electronics and aerospace industries. Bristol placed around the middle of the list in a lot of our rankings, like jobs, safety, and healthcare. But the city is rich in green spaces, cultural value, and walkability. It’...

Sometimes called the City of Dreaming Spires, Oxford is full of stunning architecture dating from the Saxon period to the modern day. The city’s rich history and deep educational ...
While it’s no longer the be-all end-all place to go in the United Kingdom, the capital city of London still takes high marks in several areas. For one thing, it has the highest migration of any U.K. city — which means there are many thriving expatriate communities. There are also more job opportunities in London, which is part of why so many foreig...
A port city that has sent ocean liners into the English Channel for over 100 years, Southampton may be most famous as the launch point of the doomed RMS Titanicin 1912. In spite of that terrible mishap, the city still enjoys a vibrant maritime culture today. Amid the 21st-century urban renewal that made Southampton a cultural force to contend with,...
Cambridge, like Oxford, is a small city about 60 miles outside London that is home to one of the United Kingdom’s most famous universities. Unlike Oxford, however, Cambridge feels like a university town. Oxford is more modern and urban, with the old university threaded throughout. But Cambridge exists primarily for the university, one of the best i...
Situated west of the Scottish capital Edinburgh on the river Clyde, Glasgow is the largest and most populous city in Scotland and the fourth in the United Kingdom. It’s also brimming with industry, job opportunities, arts organizations, green spaces, culture, and sports. Glasgow is also the main place where Gaelic is spoken and studied, outside of ...
Of all the cities on this list, Birmingham’s rank is probably the most surprising. In fact, many foreigners won’t even have heard of it. But this city in the middle of England is a hot spot for people who want the big-city feel of London without the inflated cost. Birmingham scored best for cost of living even before we narrowed the list to ten. Pl...
