Nottingham is close to the centre of England at the heart of the East Midlands. It is approximately 120 miles from London and 50 miles north of Birmingham. Approximately 267,000 people live in the city, with a total of 640,000 people living in the Greater Nottingham conurbation. There is a higher than average number of young people aged between 10 and 29, and one city resident in every 11 is a university student. Nottingham remains proud of its rich history while, over the past 20 years, undergoing a transformation that has made it one of the most stylish and vibrant cities in the UK and one of the best for shopping. Day and night Nottingham buzzes with life thanks to the great choice of shops, bars and pubs, restaurants, theatres and galleries, fine hotels, international sporting events and its reputable universities. History is never far away however, with reminders of Nottingham's legendary hero Robin Hood and his historic adversary the Sheriff of Nottingham. The Sheriff of Nottingham along with the Lord Mayor of Nottingham is elected annually from City Councillors and still has an important role in 21st century civic life, working alongside the Lord Mayor to represent the City. Among Nottingham's important historical sites and features are its unique labyrinth of caves under the city, the splendid mansion that is now Nottingham Castle Museum and Art Gallery, with, close by, the spot where Charles I raised his standard to begin the English Civil War, and Wollaton Hall, one of the most ornate Tudor buildings in Britain, with its 500 acre deer park. They all have stories to tell about Nottingham's colourful past and the City's place in the history of this country. The historic Lace Market area, which developed when large lace and textile factories and warehouses opened up there in the 18th century, has been renovated into an elegant cultural, educational and residential quarter with companies, students and home owners now working and living in buildings designed and built by Victorian lace barons. There are some spectacular new buildings to complement Nottingham's historic quarters. One of the largest is the National Ice Centre and Nottingham Arena providing the most modern ice-sports facility in the country and a large-scale conference venue. Nottingham has one of the most sophisticated urban environments with a £200 million canal quarter, more café-bars and elegant restaurants than any comparable city, an enviable reputation for clubs, theatres, cinemas and galleries. It is one of the top four retail centres (Experian) City centre living is another area of dramatic growth in Nottingham. Many redundant industrial premises and warehouses have been adapted to create modern homes from many of the redundant industrial businesses and warehouses. In the Lace Market stunning loft conversions are fetching up to £1/2million. Nottingham is the undisputed capital of the East Midlands. It is the 9th largest travel-to-work area in England with a population of 740,000 and 3 million people within an hour's drive. It is also the fastest growing major city in the UK in terms of job creation (RICS Foundation). Employment increased by 14 per cent between 1981 and 1996 and unemployment halved in the last five years of the Nineties. Nottingham boasts two world-class universities and one in 11 of all City residents is a university student. The University of Nottingham is consistently rated among the top ten in the country with ten applications for every one student place and it is the most oversubscribed university in the country (UCAS). Nottingham Trent University also has an excellent success record with many students specialising in industrial and commercial skills of the future. | ||
