Sheffield is a city and metropolitan borough of South
Yorkshire, England. Its name derives from the River Sheaf, which
runs through the city. Historically a part of the West Riding of
Yorkshire, the city has grown from its largely industrial roots to
encompass a wider economic base. The population of the City of
Sheffield is 534,500 (2008 est.),[1] but the wider Sheffield Urban
Area, which extends beyond the city proper, had a population of
640,720 as of the 2001 census. Sheffield is one of the eight largest
regional English cities that make up the English Core Cities Group
During the 19th century, Sheffield gained an international
reputation for its steel production. Many innovations were developed
locally, including crucible and stainless steel, fuelling an almost
tenfold increase in the population during the Industrial Revolution.
Sheffield received its municipal charter in 1893, when it officially
became the City of Sheffield. International competition in iron and
steel caused a decline in traditional local industries during the
1970s and 1980s, coinciding with the collapse of coal mining in the
area.
The 21st century has seen extensive redevelopment in Sheffield and
in other British cities. Sheffield's GVA (gross value added) has
increased by 60% in recent years, standing at £8.7 billion in 2006.
The economy has experienced steady growth averaging around 5%
annually, greater than that of the broader region of Yorkshire and
the Humber.
The City of Sheffield is near the confluence of five rivers, and
much of it is built on hillsides with views either into the city
centre or out onto the countryside. Sheffield has more trees per
person than any other city in Europe, estimated at more than two
million; 61% of the city is green space.
