Oxford City Council

we're building a world-class city for everyone. oxford, which has one of the fastest growing economies of all uk cities, is a global centre for research, education and health, and has a growing high-tech sector. the city also has a rich heritage and outstanding cultural attractions that attract millions of visitors every year. oxford also has a young, growing transient, and ethnically- and culturally-diverse population. but the city also has challenges. a lack of land for housing and employment, transport infrastructure that is at full capacity, and major inequalities between residents'​ life chances. our ambition is therefore to make oxford a world-class city for all our citizens. from this ambition, our priorities are: - a vibrant and sustainable economy - meeting housing needs - strong and active communities - a clean and green oxford - an efficient and effective council for more information about our priorities and strategic direction, please read our corporate plan: www.oxford.gov
