Oxford is a city in the South East region of England and the county town of Oxfordshire. With a population of around 170,000 it is one the fastest growing and most ethnically diverse cities in the UK. Known worldwide as the "city of dreaming spires" and the home of the University of Oxford, the oldest university in the English-speaking world, Oxford also has a broad economic base with strengths in motor manufacturing, education, publishing and a large number of information technology and science-based businesses (particularly university academic offshoots).
The Oxford investment property market is thriving and varied. The large student let market is strongest in East Oxford, with many Victorian terraced houses off the Cowley Road being let to students. North Oxford is historically wealthier, with many large single family houses. In the trendy Jericho neighbourhood, many young professional let long let houses. Due to an extremely high volume of tourism through the year, the short/holiday let investment property market in Oxford is also worth considering.
