| | The Best and Worst Places to Live in Britain |
 | | East Hertfordshire is a local government district forty miles north of London, a district comprised almost entirely of picture postcard villages and quaint, historic market towns – oh, and Stansted Airport is also right on its doorstep. |
 | | With a population of around 130,000, East Herts boasts five historic market towns (Bishop’s Stortford, Hertford, Ware, Buntingford and Sawbridgeworth), and you can’t lob a brick without hitting a picturesque village – think village greens with duckponds, mediaeval churches, Norman castles, timber-framed cottages, ancient-spired churches and stately old halls and mansions. |
 | | All in all, East Herts residents probably find themselves longing for a nice concrete tower block by way of variety. |
