Why British heating fuel changes outside urban areas

Does Britain mainly use oil or electric heating, and are LPG tanks common?

The panel describes gas as the usual urban and suburban fuel, with oil and some LPG serving places beyond the gas network.

A question about British heating leads to the prevalence of gas boilers in urban and suburban areas. Oil heating is described as more common where a home has no connection to a gas line. LPG systems also exist, although the speakers describe them as comparatively uncommon in their experience. As fixed underground infrastructure becomes less extensive away from urban centres, stored fuels become a more practical option.
