In Wales, we don't have school rating data, and our noise modelling data is less complete than in England. As a result, schools may appear worse and some areas in and around agglomerations may appear quieter. We're working on improving these datasets.

Life in Mid and West Wales

For those considering a move to the United Kingdom, Mid and West Wales offer a lifestyle that blends natural beauty, historical sites, and a tight-knit community atmosphere. From the rugged coastlines and sandy beaches of Pembrokeshire to the rolling hills and quaint villages of Powys, this region is a haven for nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. While larger towns like Aberystwyth and Carmarthen provide the convenience of urban amenities, there's no shortage of serene countryside to explore. However, potential movers should be aware that the rural charm comes with fewer job opportunities and the necessity for personal transportation, as public transport options can be limited outside the main towns.
