Wolverhampton

Area Guide For Wolverhampton

Not the most glamorous or coveted of neighbourhoods, but Wolverhampton may not be as bad as you might think. The city started off as a market town before the industrial revolution transformed it with major mining and production operations. Major products leaving the city included steel items, locks and a multitude of vehicles, and the area still holds true to its history with the engineering industry. Given all this, it’s no surprise that the area isn’t exactly posh or desirable, but it would be unfair to discount it altogether. Property prices are consequently not as high here either though, and the city, struggling to leave behind the not so bright past, has a motto which reads, “Out of darkness cometh light”.
