  • Borough Profile Borough Profile September 2017 September 2017
    BOROUGH PROFILE BOROUGH PROFILE SEPTEMBER 2017 SEPTEMBER 2017 1 Borough Profile Overview Hertsmere is located in the south-west of Hertfordshire abutting north-west London. Despite its proximity to Greater London, the 10,116 hectares borough remains largely rural and almost 80% of the land is designated Green Belt. The borough has five main settlements including: Borehamwood, Bushey, Potters Bar, Radlett and Shenley, with other villages and smaller settlements dispersed throughout the rest of the district. Hertsmere is very much a gateway to the county. This is reflected in the name given to the borough when it was created in 1974, combining ‘Herts’ a common abbreviation of Hertfordshire, with ‘mere’, an old word for a boundary. Hertsmere is not a single town or place and when Hertsmere was formed, it combined parts of Bushey and Potters Bar Urban Districts with Elstree and Watford Rural Districts. Population in Hertsmere The population currently stands at 103,000, which has risen by almost 13,000 between the censuses of 1981 and the most recent projections, made in 2015. The rate of population increase for Hertsmere (14.3%) is comparable with the rest of the UK (15.4%) but slightly less than average for the Southwest Herts sub-region (17.2%). Table 1: Population within the borough Location Latest known (2015) Hertsmere 103,000 Borehamwood 34,979 Bushey (including Bushey Heath) 27,109 Potters Bar 22,383 Aldenham (including Radlett) 9,338 Shenley 4,955 Elstree 4,236 source: Nomis 2 Figure 1: Age group breakdown between 2014 and 2038 in Hertsmere (as % of overall population).
