| Bournemouth's economy is characterised by its diverse and dynamic service sector, which has seen rapid development over the past twenty years. A number of world-class firms have seen the advantages in recent years of relocating to an area which combines a large pool of skilled workers with a high quality of life. The region's prosperity means that demand is high, and businesses in the town have access to a local market of some 435,000 residents.
Communications
The town is located between Poole and Christchurch with easy access to the M3/M27 via a short stretch of dual carriageway. The town has a direct rail link to London and is in close proximity to Bournemouth and Southampton Airports.
Commercial land
There is a choice of attractive town centre and out-of-town sites including new developments planned within the Lansdowne business district of Bournemouth town centre, St Pauls Square and Europa Tower.
