Luton is unique in that is one of the largest towns in the country without city status, despite a population of over 200,000. Nested on the banks of the River Lea, Luton is also within easy reach of London, and well known for its powerhouse local economy thanks to the presence of a number of well known national and international brands.
The travel and tourism industry has a strong presence in the area thanks to the fact that both EasyJet and TUI have offices here. EasyJet headquarters are actually located at Luton Airport. Vauxhall Motors is headquartered at Carleton House, and aerospace company Selex ES have offices in the area. Additionally, AstraZeneca has sites in the town, and a number of hospitality companies, including Whitbread, have a presence in Luton as well. Overall, it's a good location for those after roles with well-established companies in office support or engineering.
Every year, Luton host an international carnival, which is the largest of its kind in Europe. The town also hosts a yearly St Patrick's Day celebration, and an annual Mela, which has become one of the most notable South Asian events in the region. The town has a number of popular attractions including Leagreave Park, Whipsnade Zoo, and Woburn Safari Park. Luton Town Football Club and Bedfordshire County Cricket Club are based in the area as well.
Average salaries in the Luton area tend to come in at £37,000 per year. Given the concentration of businesses that operate here, it's also a good place to start a career in aviation, engineering, and tourism. Another bonus is that given the excellent overall transport links in Luton, commuting into London or the wider surrounding area is quite simple, meaning there are more potential opportunities for jobseekers to explore.
