Ilkley Best Place to Live 2022
Ilkley has been named as the Best Place to Live by The Sunday Times, topping a list of 70 locations that represent the best of the UK.
Ilkley was chosen as the Best Place to live for many reasons, including its top schools, interesting shops, spectacular scenery and convenient rail links.
The expert judging panel was also impressed by Ilkley’s range of sports clubs and the opportunities they offer for young people and by the energetic community spirit.
They acknowledge that volunteering is a big part of life in Ilkley and the town residents are proactive when it comes to setting up and establishing new ventures. They provide examples of Ilkley Cinema as well as Ilkley’s thriving Real Food Market.
