activity, settlement Urban core has a high population density

Young age structure because migrants, at the working age, are attracting to the city’s-
natural increase.
+ better paying jobs (most jobs are in tertiary sector)
-60 percent of jobs in the city are in the urban core
Settlement?
Rural- low population density (sparsely populated) most work in the primary sector+
little economic activity few job opportunities (most jobs in the primary sector but some
rural areas have seasonal tourism)
Old age structure because people retore they’re and the young people move out
Why- rural areas are struggling to grow economically because of their location. They
isolated and hard to access lack of job opportunity leads to depopulation as the
younger people move out leading to a loss of services as they can no longer be
supported
+Hard to farm
ECNOMIC GROWTH LEADS TO POPULATION GROWTH

Uk
Set up enterprise 55 zones
Low tax + less strict planning regulation + improved infrastructure for example
broadband to attract companies to move to areas with high unemployment to create
jobs and income to poorer areas so people will move and support the local economy
Investment in transport make rural areas more accessible so more people will move
there + company’s
-hs2 high speed rail line to increase train capacity and provide faster joury to major
city’s
Regional development?
EU-
Funding for infrastructure for example the regional development fund invested in
super-fast board band which attracted high tech business companies to locate there
This will create high skilled jobs which will attract skilled graduates and boast the local
economy.
+ provide training for the local people so they could gain skills and people more suited
to work in the teriary secotor which will attract companies and create jobs.
Distribution
Most migrants move the cities why? - because that’s where there are the most job
opportunities and university’s which creates a high population density in cities
counter urbanisation- wealthy people are moving out of urban core to rural areas for a
better quality of life + older people retiring in coastal areas in the east and southwest of
England
age structure- increase the 20-29 age group
migrants are at the childbearing age
they make up 13 percent of the population but around for 27 percent of the birth rate

immigration policies which have boasted ethnic and cultural diversity

Commonwealth (after the second world war)- people invited to England (examples:
Caribbean, India, Pakistana0 to fill the labour shortage
Entry was later restricted but the uk offered work permits for Skilled workers. IT- many
high skilled people from Pakistan and India came over
Lead to high portion of people from an ethnic background- nearly 10 percent

Since 1995 the EU has allowed the free movement of migrants of people within
members of the EU -increased the number of migrants from the EU
8 countries for example countries joined the uk which led low skilled people moving to
the uk
Leads to more diversity in culture, language, food, art and fashion form their home
country which gives the uk a rich mix

Primary sector declined because farming has become mechanised, so fewer people are
needed + companies move abroad where labour cost is cheaper or the outer city areas
where rents are low + cheaper labour cost
Rise in the service jobs because population growth has led to a dammed for services
More affluent country (people have a disposable income) demand for services
The finical centre- the city of London is a global financial centre so many banks locate
there
High university graduates’ people are more suited to work in the- IT

The role of TNS in the UK economy and FDI has increased because
Globalisation (the world becoming more connected) the uk has become more
accessible why? Transport and communication in the uk have improved which makes it
easier for TNC to operate in the uk

Free trade policies reduce import and export restrictions

EU free trade between members so compays could move goods and services freely
through the EU countries has attracted company’s because they can trade easily

PRIVTISATION- INCREASES FDI SINCE COMPAYS BUY SERVICES RUN BY THE UK

GOVERNMENT AND MERGE THEM WITH THEIR BUNESS
AD
JOBS ARE CREATED
INTROUCE NEW TECNOOLGY OR PRODUCTS WHICH COULD IMPROVE PRODUCTIUVY
COST
LOW BUENOESS STRUGGLE TO COMPETE AND AS A RESULT CLOSE DOWN
TNC ARE FOOTLOOSE

BANKS LOACTE IN LONDON BECAUSE OF THE NETWORKING OPPOTUIIES AND THE

BUNESS CULTURE
