Leeds is fantastic as a city, my sister is studying there and is in love with the place. Here is an excerpt from a property developing magazine (!) that sums it up pretty well:
'Leeds ... live it love it'
This new motto for Leeds really evokes the pride and passion people have about the city, its buzz and vitality. Everyone from residents, visitors, students, commuters and business people say the same:'Try Leeds and you'll love it'.Leeds is increasingly recognised for business, culture, shopping, education and nightlife. It has recently been voted 'Britain's Best City for Business', 'Visitor City of the Year' and the UK's 'Best University Destination' There are more student applications to Leeds university than any other in the UK.
...Leeds was also voted 'Best Place to Live', 'Best City For Business', even 'Britain's Sexiest City'. Leeds really is an exciting, vibrant place
