Most desirable postcodes in the UK revealed
在英國，發現最理想的郵編座標
The study, commissioned by Royal Mail, analysed factors such as jobs, health, education and crime.
英國皇家郵政在工作、健康、教育和犯罪率等方面對英國各地進行了分析。
The UK's most desirable postcodes, based on criteria including crime, jobs and health, have been revealed by Royal Mail.
參照犯罪率、就業和健康等方面的標準，英國皇家郵政評出了英國最理想的郵政編碼。
Out of around 1.8 million postcodes in the UK today, the SP9 postcode of Tidworth in Wiltshire scored top marks in England, while South Glasgow (G44) came first in Scotland and Brynteg on Anglesey (LL78) was said to have the most desirable postcode in Wales.
目前英國大約有180萬個郵政編碼，其中位於威爾特郡，郵編爲SP9的蒂德沃思名列首位，南格拉斯哥（郵編G44）爲蘇格蘭第一，而安格爾西島（郵編LL78）則是威爾士最理想的郵編座標。
The study, by the Centre for Economic and Business Research, was commissioned to mark the 40th anniversary of the allocation of postcodes to every address in Britain, which the Royal Mail said “revolutionised” the way post was sorted and delivered.
研究由英國經濟與商業研究中心開展，以紀念英國向國內各地分配郵編40週年。皇家郵政表示，此舉“徹底改變了”郵件分類和寄送的方式。
Each area was assessed on a range of factors including employment opportunities, health, education, crime rates and housing affordability.
每個地區會根據一系列因素參與評選，包括就業機會、健康、教育、犯罪率以及購房承受力。
Completing the top three postcodes in England were the Hampshire village of Yateley (GU46) and the seaside resort of St Bees in Cumbria (CA27). In Scotland Erskine (PA8) and Largs (KA30) were in second and third place, while in Wales it was Llantwit Major (CF61) and Llanidloes (SY18).
參與角逐英格蘭地區頭三名的是位於漢普郡的亞特里（郵編GU46）和位於坎布里亞郡的海濱勝地聖比斯島（郵編CA27）。在蘇格蘭地區，厄斯金（郵編PA8）和拉格斯鎮（郵編KA30）分列二、三名，威爾士地區則是蘭特威特馬哲（郵編CF61）和拉尼德洛伊斯鎮（郵編SY18）。

Steve Rooney, head of Royal Mail's address management unit, said: “The invention of the postcode revolutionised the way post is sorted and delivered. As it has evolved, the postcodes have also revolutionised the way companies do business.
史蒂夫·魯尼是英國皇家郵政的地址管理部負責人，他說道：“郵政編碼的發明徹底改變了郵件分類和寄送的方式。隨着這一變革，郵編同時也改變了企業經營的方式。”
"The postcode is now used by businesses and individuals in their everyday activities, whether that is verifying a person's address when making a transaction or planning a route on a sat-nav system."
“現在，企業和個人在日常生活中都要用到郵編，不管是用於驗證地址，進行交易，還是計劃出遊時查詢衛星導航系統都需要它。”
Overall, there are 48 million postcodes available under Royal Mail's alpha-numeric system. The combination of letters and numbers was chosen because people can remember a mixture of numbers and letters more easily than a list of numbers and it gives more code combinations.
皇家郵政的字母-數字編碼系統如今共分配了4千8百萬有效郵編。之所以選擇字母加數字的郵編形式，是因爲相比純數字，人們更容易記住這種組合形式，而且這種方式能提供更多組合。
