London's most desirable locations to live have been identified in a new guide. The top five are listed as Richmond, Chiswick, Dulwich, Balham and Muswell Hill.

The Sunday Times Best Places To Live guide takes into account a range of factors including transport links, quality of schools, natural beauty, low crime rate, property prices and culture, as well as unemployment figures.

Each area was also assessed on its own individual assets, such as whether it hosts a festival, if it is home to interesting architecture

and proximity to an airport. The overall national winner will be announced on Sunday when the two-part guide will name the top 10 places in nine regions around the country.
