Do people live full time on the seaside?
Yes! Though seaside towns are stereotyped as holiday destinations, they’re also great options for full time living.
Fresh air, coastal views, swimming options and a community feel: these are all the benefits you can expect from seaside living. Around 5.3 million people live in coastal towns in England and Wales, 3.5 million of whom live in seaside towns (anywhere with a beach or visitor attractions).

Are seaside houses second houses or primary homes?
Is the seaside just for older people?
No, seaside towns are not just for older people. In fact, there is lots of appeal for houses for young sharers and couples by the sea. Some seaside towns are becoming particularly popular with young, fashionable types. So if you’re into craft beer and latté art you might consider somewhere like Ramsgate, Deal or Crosby.
Older people may also be attracted to the benefits of coastal life - fresh air, nice coffee, nice gentle walks, lots of local shops.

What are the disadvantages of living by the sea?
Seaside towns have traditionally had very high crime rates in the UK. This is because seaside towns used to be docks with high trade rates, and therefore lots of crime. However there has been a large effort to swing this trend the other way, with injections of money dotted around seaside towns.
The other main disadvantage of seaside living is the inability to travel - getting to and from work and school can be stressful if you live in a remote area (unless you’re a fisherman of course!) It’s worth factoring travel time and costs in before you make any big decisions.
