When you are moving locally you already know the surroundings and are well adapted to everything but with the rise of property costs and the fact that it is more acceptable to work from home, loads of individuals and families are moving our of the big cities.

At first the greater London was a natural choice where you are 1 hour from central London and the way of leaving is about the same but with time these areas became also expensive so there has been an influx of removals going far out of London to smaller cities where the housing cost is some times half what We have in the big cities with better and bigger properties.

But even though you are saving on the house cost and cost of living, there are other items that might be a bit of a challenge specially if you more a cosmopolitan sort of person. Shops are not as close as you are used to and you probably have to organize better your shopping list buying bigger quantity to stock as the bigger supermarket is not that close.

The resources of services might be a little of a challenge as you don`t have loads of plumber, electricians, mechanics and even Amazon might not deliver on the next day as you had before but don`t panic, you just have to adapt.
