My one rule of thumb for Birmingham districts is to avoid any that have the word "Heath" in their name.

Kings Heath, Druids Heath, Small Heath.....all of them looked like Beirut.

Moseley and edgbadton tho.... very nice indeed 👍

Hockley Heath's not bad

No, true, but I think of that as being not really in Birmingham. Was near to me when I rented a place in Henley in Arden I think.

The most expensive bit of Birmingham is Sutton Coldfield at an average of 500k.  In Derby it's over 800k in Quarndon.

You're comparing a relatively small area outside the built up area of Derby, population less than 1,000 with a massive area which is a substantial part of the built up area of Birmingham, having a population of 110,000,  which is bound to include social type housing. Little Aston is a small area of Sutton Coldfield with 27 properties for sale over £1m compared with just 6 in Quarndon.

Look, I know it's the closed season and things are a bit quiet, but get a grip!  This is reading like the property supplement from the Daily Mail.

 Football forum, remember?

I'm not mate, Quarndon is in Derby and the house values are higher.  Areas of Mickleover, Duffield and Darley Abbey will also be higher. Little Aston is in Litchfield.

Both Quarndon and Duffield villages are within Amber Valley Bourgh Council district not Derby City Council. The house prices in Duffield begin at £400k, with rentals anything from £700 to £3k per month.

What about Mickleover and Darley Abbey and are they considerably closer to Derby City Centre than Lichfield is to Digbeth or even Sutton Coldfield .  In reality your in Derby until you get your arse aways down the A6 into Makeney and into Ambergate after a few miles of not much.

Haven't both Quarndon and Breadsall lobbied against proposals to incorporate them into the city of Derby in recent times?

Duffield certainly isn't in Derby.

District Council areas can be deceptive though. Little Aston is in Lichfield District Council for administrative purposes but it’s much nearer Sutton Coldfield. It’s actually slightly closer to Walsall than Lichfield not that the residents would like to admit it 😀. A bit like Fazeley near where I live. That’s also in LDC but whilst it’s just over a mile from Tamworth town centre it’s nearly 9 miles from Lichfield.

Almost, but not quite. I imagine the DM property supplement says everywhere is rubbish as there are too many council houses/foreigners/champagne socialists/asylum seekers etc

Yes, and they're all trying to leave by the looks of it. 🥷

The district of Amber Valley begins going north on the A6 Burley Hill, at the entrance of Allestree Park, not in Makeney, which is not on the A6, or Ambergate, which is another 3 miles after the up-market town of Belper.

For quite a few years, the Derby City Council have been eyeing the chance to take Quarndon into the city boundaries for all the "rich pickings" of council tax from the dozens of million pound houses that is in that village.

I consider Mackworth, Breadsall, Duffield and Quarndon as very much part of Derby.  Boundaries or not they are off or within a few miles of the city centre and much closer than Sutton Coldfield to central Birmingham.  Makeney is just off the A6 to my recollection, you turn past the pub on the right

If Duffield & Quarndon are "very much part of Derby", why do I pay my council tax to Amber Valley Borough Council, whose head office is based in Ripley?

You'll be saying Buxton is in Manchester next!!!

Breadsall Hill Top Estate is within the Derby City boundary, but Breadsall Village is in the Borough of Erewash. Do you know Derbyshire very well?

Buxton may as well be. 

I'm sorry if being part of the misery upsets you but in reality Duffields much closer to the misery of Derby City Centre than Chatsworth Estate.

Wow, they've really got their feet grounded.

Wait until they've met the Steve Evans version of Rotherham. 😂

Good lord.

I don't see much difference to comments on this forum.

I know someone who works at St Andrews, he told me that he asked the yank how he felt about the relegation, he replied that it was not a problem and that they've got £50m to throw at it next season. It might be a load of bull, we'll find out next season. But nobody can deny that there is a chance that they could walk away with the lg1 next season, they'll be more equiped for it than any lg1 side was for this season, with the starting squad and the money available.

BTW, they are the early odds on favourites for promotion with the bookies.
