Any thoughts please? I'm a single SAHM of one toddler living in a semi rural village with very limited public transport (bus every 3 hrs) and no friends or family nearby, they're 30 miles away.
I have a nice flat, and moved here from London when DD was 3 months as it was a huge step nearer family and better than the cold damp council flat we had. I have made the most of it but have struggled with the location and haven't gone back to work as it would mean £10 in taxis per day to get to the town or train station to go elsewhere. I also have a very noisy neighbour above who I've had to formally complain about.
I want to move near my parents and would have to move to a private rental in order to do this. I have been offered one by a family friend that is quite shabby decor and much higher rent, but in the right location. Would it be foolish to accept and lose the social tenancy?
