What is 'local attachment'?
Local attachment refers to the feeling of belonging and connection to one's immediate community, such as a town or neighbourhood. The story highlights a rise in this feeling from 29% to 40% since 2011, contrasting with falling national pride. This suggests people might be finding more meaning and connection closer to home.
