About 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.uk/corporateplan
