Where did most people want to live in 2007? New figures from Recently Moved, a direct marketing service, have revealed the top 10 UK postcode areas that people moved to during last year.
 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
What areas of the UK attracted the most new home movers in 2007?
According to figures from Recently Moved, the Birmingham area leads the league table, closely followed by most of the London postcodes, Glasgow, Southampton, Manchester and Belfast.
Recently Moved is a B2C marketing service from Selectabase that helps businesses target consumers in a specific geographic area just after they’ve moved house. Recently Moved gathers details of home movers in 122 different postcode areas, and makes the data available in an affordable monthly list to use in direct marketing.
Even if your local area isn’t in the top 10, the Recently Moved statistics still show there’s plenty of movement across the rest of the country.
Almost 80% of UK home movers last year relocated to one of the other 112 postcode areas outside the top 10. And Recently Moved has identified over 606,000 home movers last year, which averages out to almost 5,000 leads per postcode area.
The top 10 UK home-mover hotspots make particularly interesting reading if you are one of the many suppliers of goods and services that new home owners spend more money on after they move house.
For example if you provide utilities, home improvements, home furnishings, and financial services, the figures show just where the most potential customers might be found using Recently Moved.
Here’s that list of the top 10 hot home mover areas in full:
1. B (Birmingham)
2. SW (South West London)
3. E (East London)
4. SE (South East London)
5. G (Glasgow)
6. N (North London)
7. S (Southampton)
8. BT (Belfast)
9. W (West London)
