Grew up in the 7th most desirable welsh postcode. Baffled by the number one choice there though.

All of those places sound terrible.

Also you know it’s a joke because the Wales list includes two Barry postcodes, and everyone knows Barry is a total shit hole.

Would be interesting to see this mapped onto something regarding immigrant demographics and also numbers of non-white people already living there to find out if it’s basically a list of places racists would love.

This seems like a Tory thing to care about.

  • Nah mate, no Tory.

I take offence at CF62 being called Barry. My address was officially “Nr Barry”

Postcode chat - were you a CF71?

Having a “desirable” postcode, you mean?

It’s just a postcode isn’t it? I love the idea that they can be “desirable” because HOW CAN THEY BE.

Only ones I recognise are Horsforth (dull) and Dronfield (looks shit from the train)

no i dont but i can confirm that sale is a boring fucking place

You know it blud.

Yeah horsforth is the middle classest place imaginable.

Thinly-veiled “couldn’t afford to move to Horsforth” post.

There must be some mistake as there are no London postcodes on the list.

Also, they couldn’t even be bothered to spell the #1 place in Scotland right.

oh the link is the Torygraph.

fuck that.

Ipswich lol. Ipswich is the laughing stock of East Anglia

My parents live in Broadstone - number 3

I didn’t grow up there. I don’t really care for it to be honest

When I moved to Leeds and was flat-hunting, letting agents would actually put “LS1 postcode” in the Rightmove description as an attractive feature of the flat to differentiate it from the flats south of the river but still in the centre (LS10). Imagine giving a shit about the actual postcode of a flat

ha ha suck it Tories!

I was once shown round a flat that was for all intents and purposes in a less desireable area than the postcode implied, and the estate agent actually tried to sell it by saying “and of course it’s got the xx postcode!”. It was a rental flat as well.
