Depends what the standards are like for indoor heating in Sweden. I heard they're pretty good. In that case I'd take Malmo over anywhere in Uk Midlands and north. You'll have no worries about that inside urban areas at least. Central heating system. It's an essential service and a basic human right in Sweden because of our cold winters.

Nice. My rooftop apartment currently doesn't have ANY central heating. The mongs who designed this building only thought to extend the central heating to the 4th floor, I'm on the 5th.
Come to think of it, this place is probably the tallest building Buxton has...

You live on the 2nd highest floor, of the tallest building, in the highest town in England. Yet you don't have any central heating? That place must be freezing!

If he lives in the same place as before, the flat is absolutely a freezer in winter. For the battle, in this case it isn't too hard. If it was Sweden vs London, Portsmouth, Cambridge, Ipswich etc I would've went with England.

Yeah this was a mismatch. The best part of Sweden vs the worst part of the UK.

If he lives in the same place as before, the flat is absolutely a freezer in winter. Same building, different apartment. This one's even colder than the last one, but it's a top floor one. This one gets the sun, facing SW, so in winter it's about 6°C and on sunny summer days can be 31°C.

Hopefully 6-12 months and I'll be moving somewhere warmer. Nice views though (when you can see past the condensation on the windows)

Just checked the Wiki box for Sheffield. Surprisingly warm for a northern station at 131m.
Almost suspiciously warm...

Hull for me, but Doncaster, Lund and downtown Stockholm are really close.
Nyköping roughly equals Chester and York for me though. Each degree in summer makes such a massive difference.

Nykoping would easily beat my location for those who like seasonality, but for someone who dislikes cold Nykoping would surely lose. It's colder than Chester during 9 months of the year, and when it does have the warmth advantage it's only by a narrow margin, barely noticeable. Not to mention that it struggles to generate any reasonable warmth during the shoulder seasons.

I think one of Nyköping's biggest advantages is the 1900+ hours of sunshine...

Any Finn would be hard-pressed to mention anything positive with Sweden Besides, there aren't that much in terms of "proper" winters by Finnish terms south of Uppsala. Highland Småland and Bergslagen sure, but not that much else...
