If you are going to look at prosperous parts of the UK it seems perfectly fair to compare London to say Bavaria which has a population comparable to greater London, a GDP about 30% higher and offers a very high quality of life. I have homes in both cities and I would say Munich wins EASILY for quality of life. There are less poor here, it's much less crowded, you have better access to nature, feck all crime, better public services, and for the price of a 3 bed ex council semi in a decent area of London you can buy a detached house with a pool.
On the other hand life in the poorer parts of Greece, Spain or southern Italy is probably much more miserable than living in Swansea or Sheffield.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Milan.
You've spotted what most economists have missed, Milan.
Portugal makes shoes. I can hear the sigh of relief in the Portuguese ministry of Finance from here.
What a cretin you are to be sure.Hard Brexit now!

I know - I've been every year since 1991 and worked in Germany and Switzerland.
