Why Halifax?

Recorded as Halyfax in 1091, Halifax is a town situated approximately 20km West of Leeds in West Yorkshire, sitting between the Peak District National Park & the Yorkshire Dales, making it a great base for fans of all things outdoors. Also due to its convenient and strategic location to Manchester (36km), Leeds (22km), Bradford (10km) & Sheffield it’s a town that appeals to city-lovers and commuters, as well.

Halifax is known for many things, but most notably, wool manufacturing, carpets, toffees & sweets. The town has a long history of confectionery, notably to Mackintosh who introduced toffees and created Quality Street, eventually purchased by Nestle.

As Calderdale remarks:

Metropolitan

Borough

Council

“Within 1 hour’s travel of the borough are a quarter of a million busi-

nesses, over 8 million people and a workforce of more than 3 million, with the combined Leeds and Manchester city region economies worth around £150bn on our doorstep.”

Being situated in between the Yorkshire Dales and the Peak District attracts outdoor enthusiasts from far and wide, if you’re into walking, the People’s Park and Ogden Water Country Park & Nature Reserve are great local places to get some fresh air.

When it comes to culture and the arts, there’s a large cinema where you can enjoy all the latest releases, and a selection of great theatres to visit such as the Victoria and the Viaduct.

The music scene is big in Halifax too and, if you’re a music lover, you’ll find there’s no shortage of vinyl shops or local gigs to attend.

Interestingly, Ed Sheeran was born in Halifax.

In Halifax, demand for property is being affected by a number of factors. Principally, they include: · · · ·

Population growth Demographic changes Rising employment A likely resurgence in tourism

According to the most recent data from Plumplot, the total population of Halifax postcode area was 165,000 in 2020, a figure which had increased by +10.2% (15,300 residents) since 2002. the Leader of the Council, Cllr Tom Swift said: “We want to see Calderdale grow and thrive over the next 15 years, with

enough pupils to keep our schools open, enough customers for our town centre shops and enough employees to work in our local businesses without having to travel in from elsewhere. The Local Plan… is designed to address these issues.”

In short, whether Halifax’s population grows in line with national trends or with its own lofty economic ambitions, it seems certain that resident numbers and demand for residential property will rise noticeably in the coming years.

The Covid pandemic presented Halifax with the same challenges that towns and cities faced across the world. That included business closures and job losses but it’s testament to the region’s economic resilience that job numbers have already surpassed their pre-pandemic records.

In January 2022, local paper, the Halifax Courier reported that: “The number of people employed in West Yorkshire has risen to more than one million for the first time since before the start of the pandemic…

Employment in the region is now three per cent above the pre-pandemic level seen in February 2020.”
