Sefton

Sefton is a metropolitan borough (district) in Merseyside, Northwest England, directly north of Liverpool.

Main towns: Southport (north, popular seaside resort), Bootle (south, port and industrial area), Crosby, Formby, and Maghull. 
Sefton stretches as a 22-mile long coastal strip along the Irish Sea, from the Ribble Estuary in the north to the Mersey in the south. 
The area combines industry (primarily ports and docks in Bootle, including Royal Seaforth Dock), residential areas, tourism (Southport as a classic seaside resort), and green zones (dunes and golf courses such as Royal Birkdale). 
Characteristics: Economy: Port activities, industry, tourism, and offices. 
Prominence: Aintree Racecourse (Grand National) is located in the southeast. 
Demographics: Predominantly White British (approx. 95%), relatively aging population (median age around 46). 

In short: Sefton is a diverse coastal district with a mix of industry, residential areas, and tourist attractions, strongly connected to the Liverpool City Region.
