Official Statistics

Towns and Travel to Work Area Productivity

As part of a wider program to transform regional-statistics, the Office for National Statistics published an article and dataset estimating annual gross value added (GVA) and productivity for user-specified geographies in December 2021. Complementing this release, the Centre for Subnational Analysis (ONS) produced new analysis exploring the industry structures of towns. In this article, we bring together these and provide an overview of economic performance of towns and cities in the decade to 2019. The analysis will be complimented with firm level microdata where available. The work supports the vision for ONS’s future subnational statistics development that will empower analysts and policy makers to make local decisions supported with local statistical evidence.
