about Birmingham
Birmingham is
a city and metropolitan borough in the English
West Midlands. It is considered by some to be
the UK's "second city". By local authority
definition, it is the largest city of the United
Kingdom, and is the second largest by urban area
population. It is also one of England's core cities.
The City of Birmingham has a population of 991,900
(2003 estimate). Along with Wolverhampton, Solihull
and the towns of the Black Country, Birmingham
forms the largest part of a large conurbation;
the "West Midlands conurbation", which
has a population of 2,275,000.
The metropolitan area of which Birmingham is
part is defined by the government as the West
Midlands county, which also includes the city
of Coventry and has a population of 2,575,000,
but in practice includes parts of the surrounding
counties of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Shropshire
and Worcestershire. Based upon commuting and economic
influence, the metropolitan area effecitvely extends
over much of the West Midlands region.
The city is commonly known by its nickname Brum
(from the local name Brummagem), and its people
as Brummies. Birmingham is home to the distinctive
Brummie accent and dialect.
Birmingham is an ethnically and culturally diverse
city. Around 30% of Birmingham's population is
of non-white ethnicity; at the time of the 2001
census, 70.4% of the population was White (including
3.2% Irish), 19.5% Asian or Asian British, 6.1%
Black or Black British, 0.5% Chinese, and 3.5%
of mixed or other ethnic heritage.
