I'm surprised that Northampton is on the list as I thought it was commutable to London and would therefore attract a lot of young "thrusting" bullsh*t types.

Northampton is on all negative indices whatever is being measured.The townspeople take great pride in this and rightly suspect any such survey which do not feature their town of being inaccurate.
The town is commutable to London but the journey is torture esp back from London which the operators seem to think is an add-on to their primary responsibility .The houses near the station are Victorian railway workers' cottages, which have no front gardens,have also suffered from really bad planning decisions to block off through roads; but they are cheap enough.Car access to the station is not easy and the car-park is small and expensive.
