The geography of Nottinghamshire makes it one of the best counties in England to commute from.
Positioned smack-bang in the centre of the country, those lucky enough to call Nottinghamshire home benefit from superb transport links to the north and south.
The A1 running right through the county, combined with regular direct trains to London, makes Nottinghamshire an ideal place for commuters.
With daily trains to cities including Leeds, Cardiff and Liverpool, Nottingham itself is, of course, a viable option for commuters.
But Nottinghamshire is packed with charming towns which boast equally as strong transport links, but without the hustle and bustle of city living.
Offering independent shops, outstanding schools and cleaner air, Nottinghamshire’s market towns are perfect for those who need to commute.
