Sheffield, its name derived from the city’s River Sheaf, is a large metropolitan city and borough in South Yorkshire, in the north of England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire (and Derbyshire), Sheffield has grown to become a driving force of the north and is largely considered its own county area.

While its famous steel industry still exists, the fact that Sheffield is now a global name in the science of metallurgy shows clearly how the city has managed to maintain its heritage while future-proofing its local economy by adapting and diversifying.
As a result of this Sheffield is now recognised as a powerhouse local economy and it is still growing. Sheffield was a world leader in steelwork during the Industrial Revolution, but suffered the decline of manufacturing and industry in line with the rest of the nation.
Reacting quicker than most however, Sheffield avoided the more dramatic slumps found elsewhere and grew to become one of the economic powerhouses in the region.
Far removed from its industrial past, Sheffield is today a vibrant, thriving commercial city, which offers considerable opportunity for investors seeking to capitalise on the region’s growing demand for property investment in Sheffield.
For many property investors, the main reason for investing in Sheffield buy-to-let property is likely to be the presence of two universities (the University of Sheffield and Hallam University) and this reason is, of course, perfectly valid.
The Sheffield Metropolitan borough, which includes the city and its immediate suburbs, is the third largest in the UK. With more than half a million residents, it outstrips Manchester, Liverpool and Bristol, coming just shy of neighbouring Leeds. With a significant ethnic diversity, Sheffield is a base of settlement for all nationalities, with an 8% population of Asian residents, almost 4% Black and 1.5% Arab.
