The second part of our series of the UK\u2019s top cities for property investment features Liverpool<\/a>. Find out what makes the Scouse capital so special and outstanding.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool is seemingly the master of making virtue out of necessity. Whilst being described as \u201cthe New York of Europe\u201d during the 19th century and giving birth to the Beatles, the city has more recently experienced some rougher years.<\/p>\n

Now, however, the tide is turning again for Britain\u2019s biggest port city.<\/p>\n

1. Half a million people<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool has about 500,000 inhabitants and an estimated 6.2m people live within one hour of the city centre. Liverpool John Lennon Airport as well as Manchester Airport can both be reached in less than 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

2. 18th century diamond<\/strong><\/p>\n

The city originally flourished in the 18th century due to its important port dock. 40% of the world\u2019s shipping cargo was happening in Liverpool at the time.<\/p>\n

3. Regeneration<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regeneration has been a topic in Liverpool for more than 10 years now and is still in full swing. The city made a big turn from having a declining population to now being a place people plan on moving to again.<\/p>\n

4. Liverpool One<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of Liverpool\u2019s biggest regeneration projects was Liverpool One. It opened its doors less than ten years ago and can already record a footfall of over 27m people every year.<\/p>\n

5. Liverpool & Roll<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool produced more top-selling musicians and rock bands than any other city. In fact, it holds the Guinness Book of Records title for the Capital of Pop. Some of the most famous bands that started out in the city are Elvis Costello, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Atomic Kitten and of course The Beatles.<\/p>\n

6. World Heritage Site<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool became a World Heritage Site in 2004, including the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, the Museum of Liverpool, Liverpool and Everton FC, the Tate North, the Beatles, Royal Birkdale and Aintree.<\/p>\n

7. Education<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool is home to three universities, The School of Tropical Medicine, Daresbury Science & Innovation Centre (one out of only two in the UK) and the proposed \u201cBio-Innovation\u201d campus at the Royal Liverpool Hospital. It also sees about 18,000 students graduating every year.<\/p>\n

8. Expansion and Innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n

95,000 new jobs will be created in the city by 2020, due to the expansion of the Super Port, the Knowledge Economy and the Tourism Industry.<\/p>\n

9. More than \u00a35billion investment<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a35billion have already been spent on development projects over the last couple of years. Yet another \u00a37billion is going to be invested in Liverpudlian development projects within the next decade.<\/p>\n

10. The Port of Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Port of Liverpool will be one of Europe\u2019s biggest super container ports by the end 2015. It will be able to handle 1.5m TEUs of cargo a year.<\/p>\n
