Altrincham Named Second Best Place to Raise a Family

Altrincham has been named the second best place in Britain to bring up a child.

The list, compiled by property specialists Leaders, placed Altrincham in second place, followed by Sevenoaks and Chichester in third and fourth places. The top spot went to the Gloucestershire spa town of Cheltenham.

Leaders stated that a number of factors were taken into account when making their decision. Quality of schools, amount of green spaces, and sense of community were all identified as important characteristics.

Kevin Shaw, national sales director at Leaders, said:

"There are plenty of things to look for not only in a family home, but in the area in which you choose to bring up your children.

"Great schools, low crime levels, plenty of green and open spaces, access to childcare services, a range of local amenities and a good selection of suitable housing are all likely to be priorities."
