With house prices in Sheffield on the up, or out of desire to live further away from a big city, many people who work or have social connections in Sheffield choose to live just outside.
In some of those areas, house prices are less expensive.
We have put together a list of some of the best train commutes into Sheffield, based on how long it takes to get into the city, as well as how the local schools are rated by Ofsted.
We have also added a short description of the town or village.
The figures do not include crime rates
