Which of these UK cities have you lived in?

[Djmiles]

None.

 

[beorhthelm]

i assume descending size, in which case im quite surprised Manchester isnt 3rd or 4th, always thougt it larger.

that Wakefield is definatly wonky though, some odd counting of city verses surrounding district? lets be honest who knew were it was or barely heard of it?

 

[ryeseagull]

None.

 

[Beach Hut]

Birmingham and Brighton, naturally in same place in Birmingham as my learned Lord Bracknell no less

 

[Starry]

London, Leeds, Bratfud, Liverpool and Bristol.

 

[Insel affe]

Brighton & Hove 1969 to mid 70s

Oblivion (Aldershot,Dachet, & Godalming)

Manchester early 80s into early 90s

London (Camden Town)early 90s to 2010

Brighton and Hove 2010 to present day which is still 2010

 

[The Mole]

I have to say that was my reaction too.

http://www.ukcities.co.uk/populations/ says 316,000.

Wikipedia says 76,886.

Wakefield Council's website says this:-

The population of Wakefield District is 322,319 (males: 157,919; females: 164,400)(based on 2008 mid-year estimate)

Strangely enough I am reading this whilst in a hotel which would technically be in the Wakefield District but not really part of Wakefield. I think 76886 is probably the correct figure. It's a lot smaller than the likes of Nottingham for example

Brighton and Notters'ham

 

[coventrygull]

Derby

Nottingham in the near future.

 

[Badger]

Brighton & Hove

-----------------------

[Austrian Gull]

Three.

I claim the dubious honour of being the first person to own up to having lived in Wakefield...

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Brighton and London only. Brighton for the first year of my life (born at the Zachary Merton Hospital in Rustington), have been half-living in London since 2002, though I spend at least half the time with Mum and Dad at Sharpthorne. I've never spent a night in any of the others.

 

[lighthouse]

If so, does Belfast really have a bigger population than Brighton 'n Hove?

Since they stopped killing each other, I guess so!

Surprised Southampton doesn't feature. I thought they were a big club!!

I have lived in none of the above.

 

[Southover Street Seagull]

Brighton
--------------
Portsmouth & Southsea

 

[Wilko]

That list is not right? Manchester is the 3rd biggest city (cetainly bigger than Leeds and Liverpool) and Portsmouth is bigger than Brighton in terms of population?

 

[Gully]

Norf Lunnon from 85 to 87, then Edinburgh 97 to 00.
