Social Care Careers - Living in Birmingham Where can you live in a landmark building or have a night out in a former custard factory? Where can you find a shopping complex that ranks amongst the best in the world or 13.5 square miles of green space that make up the largest urban park in Europe? And where can you find a million people of every culture and nationality with a shared sense of local identity? Right here in Birmingham. We're a city that's reinvented itself as a centre of cultural activity and enterprise without compromising a proud industrial past. A city that's taken its place on a world stage without losing sight of priorities that are closer to home. Home – it's what a million people call Birmingham. A further 6 million people live within 50 miles of the city centre; drawn to the thriving housing market, dynamic cultural and artistic life and top schools the UK's second city has to offer. It's these 1 million+ people that make Birmingham the place it is – a thriving, multi-racial city with an enviable sense of vibrancy and diversity. And it's this diversity that makes living and working in Birmingham such an invigorating experience.
