The Standsted economy

For parliamentary purposes, Stansted lies within the constituency of Saffron Walden - and the number of benefit claimants in this area was low as of April 2013 at 1.5% - far below the averages for the east of England (3%) or the UK (3.8%) at the time. This is indicative of a strong economy.

Likewise, in 2011, Uttlesford was home to 12,523 residents with degrees - 19.8% (2.6% higher than the average for England and Wales that year). This generally corresponds with high levels of social mobility and recruitment.

Key industries and employers in the area

This was followed by Construction, which was 1.5% larger than average that year.
