A new report has named Liverpool as the best place to live in the North West, with two areas singled out as top districts in the city.
The annual Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide, which is sponsored by Halifax, hailed Liverpool's "booming" science and tech scene and the revitalisation of the north docks as factors that make the city stand apart from its neighbours.
Judges also praised Scousers' famous community spirit, the city's watersports, our emerging creative district and the quirky places to eat and drink that are of offer.
