Halifax has been named as one of the happiest places to live in Yorkshire according to Rightmove
A Calderdale town has been named as one of the happiest places to live in Yorkshire, according to Rightmove.
Halifax has been ranked number five in the region and coming out 70th nationally in the annual 'happy at home' index.
Topping the national list is North Yorkshire’s Skipton which unsurprisingly also comes out on top in Yorkshire and the Humber.
It’s followed by Harrogate, Whitby and York.
Now in its 14th year, the Rightmove annual Happy at Home Index explores exactly what it is that makes people feel content about where they live, and highlights the happiest places in Great Britain for 2025.
Rightmove said: “Thousands of residents across more than 200 locations told us what they love (or don’t love) about their community, from the friendliness of neighbours, to job opportunities and access to green spaces.
"The survey also outlines some interesting findings, including the differences in happiness in rural, urban and suburban environments, as well as the way in which our sense of home happiness changes as we age.”
