Worthing

"Worthing has many strengths, and range of opportunities. It has grown to be one of the largest towns in West Sussex, with a population of approximately 100,000. It plays a key role in the network of towns along the south coast and has been an attractive visitor destination since the 19th century.

The town is set amongst five miles of idyllic coastline to the south and is a gateway to the South Downs to the north, an area of countryside known for its scenic beauty which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is awaiting confirmation of national park status.

The town benefits from a relatively affluent catchment and there is significant developer and investor interest in the town. For three consecutive years, 1998-2000 Worthing was voted the most profitable town in Britain, which reflected its strong business/commercial economy.

Whilst it has become more recently type cast as a destination for the elderly and a place to retire, the population dynamics are changing with a younger population now beginning to settle in the town".
