Summary

City-Regions are the enlarged territories from which core urban areas draw people for work and services such as shopping, education, health, leisure and entertainment. The City-Region is a functional entity within which business and services operate. City-regional economies play a strong role in driving forward the economies of their regions.

The city-regional scale reflects the 'geography of everyday life' rather than administrative boundaries and presents us with opportunities to develop policy that reflect and support the functioning of that City-Region.

This report is a summary of findings of a study to develop an evidence base to underpin any sustained future move towards a clear national policy for City-Regions.
