About The City
This is a fantastic place to live and work. Sheffield is the UK’s sixth largest city. It is a dynamic, changing economy, with more than 20,000 businesses.
The Great Outdoors, Next Door
What makes Sheffield unique is the combination of a bustling city centre with the vast open countryside of the Peak District. Many people choose to commute to the city centre from one of the stunning surrounding villages, while city dwellers can often be found at weekends walking, cycling and climbing the famous landscape which sits just a 20-minute drive away.
A Green City
Sheffield is known as England’s greenest city, with 200 parks, woodlands and gardens, and more trees per person than any city in Europe. Regeneration efforts in recent years complement this green heritage, making the city a mixture of cutting-edge urban design and relaxing open spaces. More than a third of thecity lies within the Peak District National Park.
