Welcome to Altrincham

Altrincham is a market town in Trafford, Greater Manchester, England, south of the River Mersey. In 2020, Altrincham was named the best place to live by the Sunday Times.

Altrincham is 8 miles (13 km) southwest of Manchester city centre, 3 miles (5 km) southwest of Sale and 10 miles (16 km) east of Warrington. At the 2011 Census, it had a population of 52,419.

Altrincham today is an affluent commuter town, partly because of its transport links. The town has a strong middle-class presence: there has been a steady increase in Altrincham’s middle classes since the 19th century. It is also home to Altrincham F.C. and three ice hockey clubs: Manchester Storm, Altrincham Aces and Trafford Tornados.
