Residents have defended their local borough after it was ranked the "most unhappy place" in the UK in a new survey.
People living in Melton, Leicestershire, spoke out after the Office for National Statistics (ONS) ranked the area 393rd out of 393 local authorities in the country in a poll looking into anxiety levels, happiness and general satisfaction with life.
While most people agreed that the area needs some improvements, many told LeicestershireLive they found the ONS assessment too harsh.
