  • West Midlands
    West Midlands Introduction The West Midlands has an area of just under 13,000 km2. Around 5.2 million people live in the region, giving a population density of 405 people per km2. This is close to the average for England, but West Midlands metropolitan county – which consists of Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton – is the second most densely populated urban area in the country after London. It has nearly 3,000 people per km2. Birmingham has just under 1 million inhabitants, making it the second largest city in the UK. Other significant urban areas are Stoke-on-Trent, Worcester, Coventry, Wolverhampton and Stafford. Economic development The economic output of the West Midlands is just around £63 billion, 8.2 per cent of the total UK GDP. Manufacturing industry is responsible for just over a quarter of employment and almost 30 per cent of GDP, the highest proportion for any region in the UK. However, the manufacturing industry is declining in favour of service industries. Unemployment in the region is above the national average at 5.9 per cent. The total income of higher education institutions in the region is over £990 million per year. Higher education provision There are 12 higher education institutions in the West Midlands: eight universities and four higher education colleges. There are an additional 41 further education colleges with students taking higher education courses. All nine Staffordshire FECs offering HE courses have joined a funding consortium of 12 institutions led by Staffordshire University. The higher education student population is over 127,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) students.
