London = too much traffic, everything twice as expensive, people not as friendly as people in the north, water tastes rubbish = not the best place

I'll grant you the traffic and the water.

The water is not good, but... Londoners have more money than everyone else, so they can afford expensive bottled mineral water shipped in from France, don't you know.

The traffic is atrocious, but that's what comes from being the greatest city - everyone wants to come here.

The people might not seem as friendly, but that's only because there are more people, and so they're in a rush to get places. Whereas the north is like a big village, so everyone's mosey-ing along, chewing on grass, and watching the cows relaxing.
