Hi and welcome to the forum.
Shrewsbury is in Shropshire and Stafford is in Staffordshire.
Its quite a difference between the two, about an hours drive if memory serves.
I used to have to go into Shrewsbury for work quite often and can say it is a very nice place with a lovely town centre, but you may be better off asking on a Shropshire/Shrewsbury forum for what it is like to live there.
As for Stafford its got pros and cons but in my opinion is nicer than any of the large surrounding conurbations and has some lovely countryside and villages near by, however so does Shrewsbury.
I strongly advise that you do not split the difference though, as that would put you in Telford!
Or Newport. Which might not be so bad. If you like Waitrose.
Used to live in Stafford, plus Shrewsbury for 6 months and work in Wellington so I knew that road well.....
It's been many years since I went in the Shrewsbury. Is it still open?
What about Leek or Burton. Or even Kinver or Wombourne. Maybe even Flash.
Flash to Kinver. A nice drive, especially using the Alliance Street short cut.But seriously that would be an impressive commute.
