Kent is awesome. we looked at a fair few properties there last year when fixing to move. we even spent a week in a hotel not far from Strood so we could experience the commute in as part of our research.
We were not looking for town living. Small villages but within 5 miles ride of village train to get hooked up. Kent has so much going for it. Not least the riding that can be done off the doorstep.
Kent seemed awesome in so many ways.
Then we realised fuck commuting in to London. And get so much more being further away.
And are now in Suffolk with zero regrets. Obviously, a part of me misses London. But that London wouldn't be available to me commuting out of it each day.
