Comment | It's definitely improved over the last 20 years. I don't have the stats to hand, but the city centre still lags way behind other comparable cities in the UK and Europe in terms of the city core's population density though.
It's a problem that affects the city overall, especially the zone that surrounds the city centre, taking in areas that were cleared for Comprehensive Redevelopment and motorway construction in the 1960s.
Glasgow used to house over a million people 100 years ago, and now despite the council area being bigger, homes around half that. |
