To feel safe in the area you live is something that each and every one of us desire.
So to work out exactly where people in Leeds feel the safest, we asked readers on social media to tell us which area of Leeds is the safest place to live in - according to them - and created this list of 13 of the most frequently mentioned areas.
And while this list does not take into account actual crime numbers and statistics in each area, it gives an idea of which areas the people who live in Leeds consider amongst the safest in the city.
So without further ado; Here are 13 areas that the people who live in Leeds consider the safest to live in:
1. Roundhay
