The heavy industries have long gone, but Glasgow is still the largest and most cosmopolitan urban area of Scotland with many mixes influences from Ireland and the Hebrides. The suburbs that stretch out along the shores of the Clyde are some of the richest property areas in Scotland and much regeneration is in progress in Paisley and other industrial areas.
