The town is one of seven locations in the region chosen in the annual Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide. This is how judges describe Knutsford in the comprehensive guide:Cosy and comfortable Knutsford is in Cheshire’s sweet spot south of Manchester — avoiding both inner-city bustle and a long commute. Helen Davies, editorial projects director and Best Places to Live editor, said: “This guide is a celebration of towns, cities and villages that are each a fantastic place to live in 2024, from Dunkeld to Knutsford, Falmouth to Leeds. “That means we can see what people really love about the places they live. “Different people may be looking for different things, but what all our best places have in common is that people love living in them and are proud to call them home.”
