Brighton's also got one of the highest suicide rates in the country too which was surprising to me as I grew up very close to there and love the place. https:/

  I also love Brighton, but honestly it doesn't surprise me hugely. There's a lot of common variables that coincide high suicide rates. It has nearly the highest population density in the South East, and a very large student demographic, both which are linked to high suicide rates. You could probably pick out some other variables too, like the fact it's a commuter town, or it has a large demographic of LGBT+ people, or it has a lot of artistic 'creative' types, who also all have high suicide rates compared to the average population.
