  As someone who is from the North West and has worked there, but now lives in London, I can honestly say I am better off in London.

  I went for a CD job in Manchester in January and it was 38K, where as in London you get 30% more.

  I don't care what anyone says London isn't 30% more expensive than Manchester.

  If you want to live anywhere decent oop north you still pay a fair amount for a house. In the village I grew up in in the Ribble valley a house starts at 200K, you can get a pad for something similar in London, but earn more.

  I'll agree that low pay in London is worse than low pay in Preston, but if you think you're any good, London is where the cash is.

  My 2p's worth
