What are the pros & cons to live(NOT travelling) in Wales/Northern Ireland/Scotland?

I%26#039;m planning to move or in Scotland or Wales or Northern Ireland NOT to travel there. I%26#039;d like to know the pros and cons of each place.It%26#039;d help if you live there.It%26#039;d be nice if you could compare the 3 of them, if you can that is.



I%26#039;d like to know about the quality of life, the schools, quality of education,the open-mindness of people,religious life,the safety, the unemployment rate, crime statistics,taxes, job opportunities,the culture, how friendly are the people,the gastronomy,the good neighborhood, the cost of life,the cultural life,the environment, the weather, the health care etc. Add anything you%26#039;d like to. :)



Detailed answers would be appreciated.



Feel free to answer.



Thanks in advance.

there is much more poverty and deprivation in Scotland than in England, generally speaking.The weather is also colder and wetter.Crime in the cities of Scotland is among the higest rates in western Europe. A good thing about Scotland though is that the rural areas and mountains are absolutly beautiful,however.



Northern Ireland could have civil unrest spill up again at any time - Im sure you know all about the political situation there so no need to go into that , but the bottom line is that it is still a very big thing to consider.



Welsh people can be a bit insular , but it could be okay if you move to an area where everybody doesn%26#039;t just speak Welsh amongst themselves. Again though Welsh scenery in the rural areas really is beautiful.



I think for detailed information you should check wikipedia articles about the individual countries.



what%26#039;s wrong with England by the way?

Please unless you have something to offer preofessionally, please, dont move to Scotland, im not racist or anything, but we have enough of a housing shortage and unemployment as it is.|||At the minute house prices are soaring in NI.



The standard of education if very good.



Plenty of hospitals and you can still get a NHS dentist.



There seems to be plenty of work out there although I have noticed that some jobs dont pay very well.



Crime rate no worse than the rest of the UK.



Friendly people.



Great Night spots now.



Beautifull beaches.



Cost of living is slightly higher than the mainland.



Plenty of Culture and places to visit .



NI is now a very pleasant country to live in.|||Okay, I see some guy has pretty much destroyed Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. Helpful.



I would say that there isn%26#039;t an easy answer to your question. Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales are advanced, wealthy first world countries, part of the UK which is one of the wealthiest and most advanced nations in the world.



I%26#039;m not sure where you are from but you will probably find that whatever stereotypes (and I do not mean the term offensively) are equally true of the areas you talk about. What I mean is that big cities are more open and have more opportunities but also greater polarisation of wealth and crime. Smaller towns will perhaps have fewer opportunities but also fewer risks. Wealthier places will have better schools and restaurants, poorer ones won%26#039;t.



I think in order to get a better answer you need to think more about your question, which is very broad. It would be useful to know for example what you do and whether you would like to live and work in a big city or a small town. In Scotland for example you could live in Glasgow, the second largest city in the UK or on a little Island that only has about 20 people on it!



You peobably need to check that you are eligible to come and live in the UK though.|||Oi Cristiana, Tudo Bom?



I think you are Brasilian or Portuguese aren%26#039;t you (just a guess). Well, I live in Scotland %26amp; my wife is Brasilian. There%26#039;s certainly not as much crime or bureaucracy in Scotland as there is in Brasil, though if you have been living perhaps in London you%26#039;d already know that (quality of life).



People are generally friendly %26amp; very open minded, though you get some idiots just like everywhere else. They%26#039;ll love your accent %26amp; will want to talk with you for ages to learn all about your culture etc.



Schools are OK, though like everywhere else there are good %26amp; bad ones. Our education system is different from other parts of the UK.



All major religions are catered for, though Catholicism, which was oncet he main religion, no longer enjoys that position, instead we have the Church of Scotland (Presbyterian).



Generally it%26#039;s quite safe, though like anywhere else there are certain things you don%26#039;t do (like being on your own in a bad area at any time, especially after dark).



Glasgow is the %26quot;murder%26quot; capital of Western Europe supposedly, but still has a long way to go to beat Rio.



It would take forever to answer everything about this. If you want a more detailed ansher give me your e-mail address %26amp; I will try to address your questions that way. In the meantimeyou can go here to see some of my images of Scotland, Brasil, Portugal %26amp; elsewhere.
