Approximate Population: 92,500

In recent years Cannock, Staffordshire, has become far more affluent and seen a population and housing increase, such as the new apartments built by the railway station and the ongoing housing development on the Cannock/Heath Hayes boundary. In keeping with the national trend, Cannock’s housing is increasingly of a post-fordist era style, although various other periods of architecture are sited around the town, such as Shoal Hill and Wolverhampton Road. The United Kingdom’s second largest populated city, Birmingham, can be commuted to by train in around 40 minutes.

Cannock has a reasonably sized town centre which includes some well known high street names. It also has outdoor and indoor markets and a shopping centre. However, some of Cannock’s other shopping opportunities are to be found in out of town locations such as Longford Island Industrial Estate and the Orbital Industrial Estate.

Cannock has two significant nightclubs Silks and Stones. Other popular clubs/bars include Forge, Piques, Academy, Bar 77, Ubar and Bar Sport. It also has a wide variety of pubs and restaurants. Its largest nightclub, Maymies, shut down in November 2005.

Cannock has a swimming pool and leisure centre. It also has an ice rink, Silverblades, although this is a small rink compared to other larger rinks to be found at Telford and Solihull.
