Edinburgh, Edinburgh Rating
Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland. It’s a beautiful, historic, and compact city that offers all the advantages of living in a capital city and few of the downsides.
The cultural offerings in Edinburgh, which is the festival capital of the world, are outstanding. Aside from the world-famous Fringe festival, Edinburgh hosts world-class shows of art, music, theatre, and comedy throughout the year. Edinburgh also offers access to stunning green and open spaces, including amazing parks within the city centre as well as national parks and coastline nearby.
Transport links within and in and out of the city are also good, with train stations, trams, buses, and good road links.
Despite this, Edinburgh is relatively affordable for a major city – salaries and employment are high, and property is significantly less expensive than it is in London. A wide range of property types and styles are available, including some excellent specimens of period homes as well as more modern developments.
In 2015, uSwitch ranked Edinburgh the best place to live in the UK.
