Those of us who were born in the city of Nottingham are most proud of our dialect. In particular, we are proud to call you “duck”. Do not be insulted; we aren’t suggesting you walk with a waddle! The word “duck” comes from the same stem as the word “duke”, and was traditionally used to show someone respect.

The average salary in Nottingham is above the national average, and due to Nottingham being such a culturally diverse city, there are many career paths you would be able to pursue. We have lots of immigrants in Nottingham, so people moving here would be able to find people who speak the same language as them, they can find shops selling foods from around the world. Along with the great career prospects, Nottingham also has 688 years of sporting heritage, and collectively, Nottinghamshire’s biggest sporting clubs have close to seven centuries of history. In just a two mile radius of the Tent Bridge crossing you’ll find two of the world’s oldest football clubs international and county cricket and the National Ice Centre.
