Online store Furniturebox polled 5,000 people, with panels in each big town, city and county including Leeds.
A Furniturebox spokesperson said: “Horsforth is the happiest place to live in Leeds.
“All 75 places on the list would have been worthy winners and show why the UK is such a wonderful place to live, loved by visitors from all over the world.
“Most of the locations in the top 75 are not the most affluent in their localities and have access to some affordable housing including Horsforth which is very popular with families.
"The survey shows that the happiest places are not defined by wealth but by the quality of life within them.”
