UK’s most judgemental residents

Sanctuary Bathrooms surveyed 2,000 people from the UK in order to find out what aspects of people’s home others would judge them on, if people have snooped around, and if anyone has googled the price tag.

They revealed which cities in the UK are most judgemental when it comes to our homes.

These are the UK cities that are most judgemental about other people’s homes:

1. London

Over one-in-five Londoners judge people on the appearance of their home, with over 30 per cent saying that a house can be ‘too clean’.

The Welsh capital came closely behind London, with a huge 91per cent saying they would judge someone for how their home looked, and 64 per cent having an opinion regarding the smell.

3. Glasgow
