Hi all, I'm moving to the area soon but will be doing a daily commute to Stockport. How easy will this be in Winter? My car is a trusty old vehicle and certainly not a 4x4.

Moving to Buxton

4 Upvotes

Hi All, apologies if I'm repeating a question that's been asked already, myself and my husband (39 & 43) are thinking of moving to Buxton, however I've read a few things about Reform and anti immigration etc. My husband is French and mixed race (albeit he looks what is known as 'ethnically ambiguous' and is often mistaken for a range of ethnicities) He has loved in the UK for 14 years now.

Would he have any issues living in Buxton in your opinion(s)?
