Isle of Anglesey
Local Authority · Wales · population ~70k
Affordable to rent, but not cheap to buy into. The Isle of Anglesey offers rents that take a manageable 23.7% of median weekly pay, and a Band D council tax that is below the Welsh median. However, house prices are high, costing 6.2 times median annual pay, and are in the upper half of Welsh authorities. Crime is the lowest in the region at 55.9 per 1,000 people. This suits those prioritising lower living costs and safety over career earnings or property investment.
