Milton Keynes the new City,

Milton Keynes the new City

We know that Milton Keynes started life in the 1950s - 1960s as a new town. As one of the solutions to a growing population and green belt laws which heavily restricted property planning on the outskirts of old established towns. The solution was simply to build a new town in the then countryside and Milton Keynes was Build, It was meant to be a town on a grand plan, it could almost said to be American in design.

You might have read that the original design guidance for Milton Keynes declared that no building taller than the tallest tree". However, I know this is not quite true, Milton Keynes does not suffer from High raise 1960 Tower blocks

You just have to look at the theory behind Milton Keynes Road Network into a street hierarchy using a grin pattern. Older towns use circle principles, but with Milton Keynes roads run between communities and not just through the city.

With a massive population growth, this has lead to rapid growth in new build houses in recent years and the Town or City is still trying how to deal with these numbers.

With the town of Milton Keynes being granted special permission to call itself "the new city". The Town of Milton Keynes as also attempted to become a city three times in the past. So this does seem bit of a comprise as my second paragraph

One of the reasons for this is Milton Keynes is now one of the most desirable places to live in the UK. This is due to excellent transport links to London, but also a strong local economy. Both of these factors have creating a mini population and housing boom in the Town.

This is why I once considered moving to Milton Keynes and communicating to London. I have used a few rental websites, but I found the Martin & co useful when I was looking for property letting in Milton Keynes.

Milton Keynes is a very family oriented place to live and it’s growing its sense of self, but its not quite there yet.
