Many businesses and residents are discovering the many benefits of relocating homes and offices away from London. It’s not just business owners who want to move; workers are also leaving London, and there are many reasons why they may be attracted to Merseyside.
The main reason for leaving London is cost savings. London is one of the most expensive cities in the world. The average house price in Liverpool is £155,700 compared to London’s £516,900. The average office space rental cost per square foot per year in London is £80 to £100, whereas in Liverpool it is £22 to £35.
Another reason to move to Merseyside is the easy access to areas of outstanding natural beauty. Southport, Formby and other Merseyside coastal locations have stunning beaches.
The BBC is one of the UK’s major employers that have successfully relocated major departments to the North to its MediaCity studios in Salford. While some London-based employers did not want to move, many did, and talented personnel were recruited from the local population.
Workers want a better work/life balance and an improved quality of life. Living and working in Merseyside with its good transport links can result in shorter commute times to work and more time to enjoy the Merseyside countryside, its pubs, restaurants, shops and rich culture.
