Can't afford the Brighton and Hove area anymore...

[stepmummy]

Hello everyone,
My husband and I currently live in Hove and are renting at the moment. We are finding the cost of renting in Brighton and Hove and surrounding areas getting more and more expensive and we just dont think we can live nearby any more so we are looking to move.
I work in Crawley and love my job and intend to stay in my current job for a long time. My husband is freelance and can live anywhere.
We are looking to move somewhere commutable to Crawley that is affordable but has a train station and some pubs restaurants, shops etc. Has anyone got any suggestions of places that we could move to? Do you live somewhere that you would recommend?

Godstone is lovely, as is Lingfield. Both have stations with direct services to London.

Worthing? My dad commuted to crawley for years. Less than an hours drive away.
