Bath

Bath is an incredible city, with an international reputation – beautiful, creative, green, compact, well connected – it offers fantastic quality of life. The city has a population of around 94,000 people and a larger catchment population who travel into the city for work and leisure. Despite its strengths the city has become increasingly unaffordable, and increasingly unequal – with house prices now 16 times average earnings and both life expectancy and educational outcomes starkly different for those in our most deprived areas.
