Perth, and Dundee.

## Sample markets
**Correction (2026-07-16):** most previously-named sample markets do verify against the
real TOP400 data below — Northampton, Warrington, and York all appear, and Chester appears
under its full local-authority name, Cheshire West and Chester. **Inverness is the one
exception**: it does not appear among the UK's 81 verified TOP400 entries, despite being
named above as a primary Scotland market. As with the other country pages, this doesn't
mean Inverness isn't a real market — it means it is not currently ranked in the TOP400
co-location screen specifically.

| Market | Region | Population range | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| [[gb-eng-chester|Chester]] | North West | 120,000–140,000 | Retail park base; NHS trust; heritage city |
| Inverness | Scotland | 70,000–90,000 | Highland capital; NHS Highland anchor; growing retail base |
| Northampton | East Midlands | 230,000–260,000 | Logistics employment base; strong retail park inventory |
| Warrington | North West | 210,000–230,000 | M6/M62 junction; major distribution and professional base |
| York | Yorkshire | 200,000–220,000 | Tourism + university + NHS trust; strong income profile |
## Ranked markets

This table is a filtered, UK-specific view of the continental
[[atlas-top-400-europe|Top 400 Regional Markets — Europe]] table — not a separate dataset
— so every rank, score, and tier count matches the continental table exactly and updates
automatically if that table is corrected. UK entries are recorded at the local-authority
level (e.g. "Cheshire West and Chester," "East Riding of Yorkshire") rather than by
settlement name.
