With this large difference it’s no wonder Manchester have a higher infant mortality. However there is another difference in the population which is there are 3 Chinese people, 4 black people, 7 mixed race 8 Asian and 24 non British with 953 white British. This shoes how the southwest is not very diverse and had has a very high population of British people. However in Manchester other groups such as Pakistani and African had the highest population. These statistics show the differences between the two areas and how urban and rural make such a big difference to the statistics. Cornwall being rural its fair to say it’s a more agricultural area with an aging population less access to public transport, on the other hand we have better air quality and les pollution. But Manchester has better public transport link meaning it’s easier to get to different public services and more jobs meaning it’s easy to find work regardless of your ethnic group. You also have to remember that Cornwall is one of the most expensive places to live in the UK second only to London and surrounding areas.

During the nineteenth century, Manchester became one of the most industrialized cities in the world. Although the industrialization of Manchester was very efficient and successful for the modernization of man, the city’s growth also raised many issues in society. The growth of the city had negative and positive effects. Although the huge population growth in Manchester in the 1800s, delighted many people, for they though this had led to advances in manufacturing and other industries-the increase caused a multiple of other issues. Some of the issues included, problems with sanitation, home and family life, and industrialization. But fortunately, there were many reformers working to bring about change and bring justice where needed.

This essay will attempt to show evidence that supports the question ‘Does residential segregation shape the social life of cities and people’s sense of who they are’ by using different types of evidence, such as qualitative, which comes from interviews, focus groups, or even pictures and other artistic endeavours like murals. Whilst quantitative is obtained from statistics, surveys and records. Evidence will be looked at by what has appeared over time, looking at the growth of Manchester during 1800’s, with migration of people from the country side, to the city to take up jobs of an industrial nature and how segregation kept the wealthy and workers apart and the inequalities of conditions they lived in. Then at more recent evidence showing a case study of Belfast and the history of a single street Portland Road in London and how segregation can create connections as well as disconnections in people’s lives and how this shapes peoples sense of who they are.

This causes a lot of congestion at peak times and larger vehicles such as buses and lorries cannot pass through. Surbiton is in London travel zone 6 (zone 1 is centre of London and zone 6 covers the edge of London), which means that train fares are quite expensive. This means that many people (40% of Surbiton) choose to drive to work and this in turn increases the amount of traffic on the roads and increases pollution along the roads connecting to the A3 (main road into London). The house prices are quite high in Surbiton, the average selling price in Surbiton in 2012 was £406,000 compared to the national average of £226,000. This makes in increasingly difficult for people on lower incomes to move to the area which could lead to economic segregation (people with high incomes living in different areas to those with a lower income). Another problem that was a recurring theme in the 1930’s was that people were becoming extremely ill as they couldn’t afford medical attention because of the prices they were paying for their houses along with their food and other essentials.

In order to understand fully the regeneration of the Stratford area, it is imperative that there is some prior knowledge of how the area has developed over time. As London is the capital of England it has always been at the forefront of development, but other different areas of London have progressed at different speeds, meaning that some areas have been left waiting for regeneration whilst others have already developed. Regeneration is defined as the revitalisation of a place or community. Regeneration is both a process and an outcome . In the 1920s there were many large slums including Old Nichol, situated in Shoreditch. The conditions in the slums were well documented by Irene Barclay, who was a chartered surveyor and wanted to address social need and her actions were well appreciated by

However wages are low but this doesn’t affect people who live here, as housing is considerably cheaper then the rest of the UK despite where it’s situated. This also means that people can buy more for their money and a standard 4-bedroom house will be relatively cheaper then if you were to buy one in Bath for example!

In the nineteenth century, Manchester became one of the most industrialized cities in England. Manchester had become the leading textile manufacturing center, which increased the nation's prosperity. In addition to being the most industrialized city, its population almost multiplied in little over a century. Since the growth of industry and urbanization was on such a large scale in such little time there were both positive and negative issues and reactions. The growth of Manchester created many issues such as poor working conditions, health issues, and an increase in standard of living for some.

My husband and I relocated to this area in 2006. He had accepted a job offer in Martinsville, Virginia, which is right over the North Carolina/ Virginia line. We shopped for houses every weekend for over a year trying to find a home that had everything we needed and that allowed him to be close to his office. However, in 2008 we purchased a home in Stoneville, North Carolina, because of the prices of housing in Virginia. We used deductive reasoning in our price comparisons that enable us to determine that the Virginia housing market was not going to work out for us.

East Hampshire Homes was a for-profit institution for a mentally retarded individual established by Jay and his wife, Leigh, a registered nurse. Leigh was the head of the mental homes and thus, was in charge of overseeing regulatory requirements as stipulated by the local, state and federal health welfare regulations. Leigh only identified Hepatitis B and blood-borne as the likely factors that East Hampshire Homes and nearby society may be exposed to, although the rate of exposure according to her was not at a risk state. Federal Occupation regulations mandated Leigh to develop a compliance policy that could safeguard the employees. On the other hand, OSHA authorized Leigh a discretion of developing a framework for classifying the tasks that

Any city's neighborhoods make up the soul of a town, and knowing these neighborhoods reveal the heart of Billings. The south side of Billings is the oldest residential area in the city as well as it’s most culturally diverse. The Bottom Westend Historic District is home to many of Billing’s first mansions. Midtown, the most densely populated portion of the city is in the midst of gentrification on a level that few if any areas in Montana or the surrounding states have ever seen. A lot of that new growth is mainly concentrated on Billings's West End, which is characterized by upper income families, growing as the medical, oil and energy industries expand here. Denser, more urban growth is occurring in Josephine Crossing, one of Billings' many

Ireland 1845, food was suddenly scarce, money was hard to earn, and what little was earned was immediately spent for survival. The people of Ireland had grown up used to missing meals due to crop failure. However, previous crop failures couldn’t compare to the potato famine of 1845. For the next five years, the blight destroyed nearly all the potato crops and killed many Irish. About one million people died during this time in Ireland because of the starvation and disease. About two million fled the lands of Ireland in hopes of escaping the starvation, disease, death, and poverty that had taken over Ireland since the famine. The tenant farmers, who suffered would farm land that belonged to the absentee landlords. They would grow many crops, most of which were very successful. They were only allowed to keep the potato crops for their own; the rest of the crops would be harvested and exported to England. The absentee landlords lived like kings while the tenant farmers were forced to sell everything they owned so they could have money to purchase food to stay alive. When they ran out of things to sell they were then forced to scavenge for food scraps just to escape death for a while longer. The starvation and struggle of the Irish tenant farmers could have been avoided if the absentee landlords hadn’t been so greedy with collecting the rent. England could have come to the aid of the Irish people sooner than they did if they weren’t so interested in staying true to their
