LIVERPOOL
LIVERPOOL - A CAPITAL OF CULTURE
• The Liverpool City Region has a population of 1.5 million and the economy is set to double to £50 billion by 2040
Famous for its two Premier League football clubs, world-renowned music scene and important industrial history, the city of Liverpool situated in the north-west of England has benefited from a major overhaul triggered largely by its success as the European City of Culture in 2008. Regeneration in the city is ongoing as its population continues to expand, and it is now classed as one of the best places in the country to invest in the buy-to-let sector.
• Experts predict that the city will gain more than 100,000 new jobs and 20,000 new businesses over the next 25 years • With over 100,000 international students, Liverpool was voted the number one UK destination for Chinese students by the British Council • On average, it is 37% cheaper to live in Liverpool than London • Liverpool’s GVA growth was recorded at 3.5% between 2014 and 2015, while GVA for the rest of the UK was 2.9%
THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE Liverpool is one of the core places being targeted by the government’s Northern Powerhouse proposal, alongside the likes of Manchester, Leeds and Newcastle, as the city pushes to be given more powers away from London’s Whitehall. The city is currently undergoing a £14bn overhaul led by the city council, with a number of redevelopment and regeneration projects taking place throughout Liverpool. It is expected to benefit from 10,000 new homes, a new stadium for Everton Football Club, an additional cruise terminal, £250m of road infrastructure and two million square feet of commercial office space. Alongside this, the Liverpool Local Plan will see the creation of 38,000 new jobs and 35,000 new homes between now and 2033, with the population forecast to rise above half a million.
