We asked readers to recommend some of the best places in Yorkshire to set down roots, and the response was amazing.
From buzzy suburbs to picturesque rural outposts, there was a huge range of suggestions.
What makes somewhere a good place to live is highly subjective, of course, but friendly locals and a strong sense of community were key factors for many of you.
Open spaces, from pretty parks to stunning coastal walks; popular pubs, shops and cafes; and good transport links were also high on the agenda.
We couldn’t include all your recommendations but here’s our pick of some of the best places to live in Yorkshire, based on how many people suggested them and the reasons they gave.
They’re not all traditionally the most sought-after areas, but they do all have lots to recommend them, according to the people who know them best.
One of the areas has been named the UK’s happiest place to live, another has been called the nation’s most underrated town, and a third is home to one of Europe’s largest urban parks.
Thanks for all the suggestions. Did your neighbourhood make the list?

5. Dore
Picturesque Dore is the most expensive place in Sheffield to live, and there's a reason for that. Lots of people recommended Dore and neighbouring Totley as the best places to live. Paul Savage said the area is not just affluent but has a 'great community spirit'. | Iconic Media Group Photo: Dean Atkins

6. Roundhay, Leeds
Roundhay Park is one of the largest urban parks in Europe, with more than 700 acres of parkland, lakes, woodland and gardens. It's one reason why the Roundhay area of Leeds is among Yorkshire's most sought-after neighbourhoods, recommended by readers as a great place to live. The estate agency Monroe says it is 'popular with professionals and families in Leeds because of the ideal location, rural feel and its great selection of bars, cafes, restaurants and shops'. | YPN Photo: James Hardisty

7. Ryedale
Picturesque Ryedale, in North Yorkshire, is a great place to live, according to readers. It's home to lots of pretty villages, like Thornton-le-Dale, pictured. Linda Ullathorne said: "There isn’t a bad place in Ryedale... Moors, sea, Howardian Hills, Helmsley. Job done." | YPN Photo: Richard Ponter

8. Horsforth, West Yorkshire
Horsforth, on the outskirts of Leeds, was recommended by Chris Calvert as a great place to live. He said: "You have to live there or visit to see why." Horsforth was only last year rated by SellHouseFast as the UK's most underrated town thanks to its excellent schools, great range of pubs, restaurants and coffee shops, and easy access by road or rail to Leeds city centre. | Other Photo: Other
