I've been to Denmark a few times and I think the cost of living is probably similar to England outside London. Standard of living here isn't as high as Denmark though.

Oki, thanks Smile! But where is it easiest to find a reasonable price outside a big city or maybe in a big city?

Very Happy

Usually the outer suburbs a bit cheaper, with London it's (usually) cheaper to get a place in zone 4, 5 and 6. Still gotta into town then though which is obviously more expensive..

Sheffield in nice. It has everything you need, nice people and is very cheap. And it's easy to get to other places like Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester from there.

HappyPole ... can you please refrain from quoting the whole posting please ?
I noticed that you like doing that but it would be enough to just quote the part you're refering to.
Thank you.
