| Liverpool, city and
metropolitan borough in Merseyside, England, along the eastern side of
the
Mersey Estuary. Built across a ridge of hills rising up to a height of
around 230 feet (70 metres) above sea-level at Everton Hill, the city's
urban area runs directly into Bootle and Crosby in Sefton to the north,
and Huyton and Prescot in Knowsley to the east. It faces Wallasey and Birkenhead
across the River Mersey to the west. Liverpool is governed by one of five
councils within the Metropolitan county of Merseyside, and is one of England's
core cities and its fifth most populous - 441,477 in 2002, with 816,000
in the Liverpool Urban Area, which includes suburbs on the Liverpool side
of the Mersey but not those on the Wirral. Inhabitants of Liverpool are
referred to as Liverpudlians and nicknamed "Scousers", in reference to
the local meal known as 'scouse', a form of stew. The word scouse has also
become synonymous with the Liverpool accent and dialect. |
| In the 1960s Liverpool became
a centre of youth culture. The "Merseybeat" sound which became synonymous
with The Beatles and fellow Liverpudlian pop bands of the era catapulted
the city to the front of the popular music scene. From the mid-1970s onwards
Liverpool's docks and traditional manufacturing industries went into sharp
decline. |
|
|
|
| The advent of
containerization meant that Liverpool's docks became largely obsolete.
In the early 1980s unemployment rates in Liverpool were amongst the highest
in the UK. In recent years, Liverpool's economy has recovered and has experienced
growth rates higher than the national average since the mid-nineties.
In 1974, Liverpool became
a metropolitan district within the newly created metropolitan county of
Merseyside, it had previously been in Lancashire. At the end of the century
Liverpool was concentrating on regeneration which still continues today,
with the city winning the accolade of European Capital of Culture for 2008.
Capitalising on the popularity of the 1960s pop group The Beatles and other
groups of the Merseybeat era, tourism has also become a significant factor
in Liverpool's economy. |
