It's amusing for me that you instantly disqualified the idea of living within Central London. It definitely depends on stage of life but being able to walk to work or walk home late at night in Summer is a seriously underrated QoL feature IMO. Tho ofc you don't get outdoor space.
- fakedang 6y agoI lived in Central London right until last year. Definitely depends on stage of life, but it's not like London is unlivable for someone making 100k pa. Also if I wanted to walk to and from work, now I'd rather get a hotel or ABNB and commute like that for a while. It seriously gets old.

Also fwiw I've lived 4 years of my life inside zone 1. I think the main downside is air pollution and outdoor space, although you can find garden flats dotted around
