Dundee – United Kingdom

About Dundee

Scotland’s fourth-largest city, Dundee; Scots: Dundee; Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Dè or Dùn Dèagh Scottish Gaelic pronunciation: [tun tje]) is also the United Kingdom’s fifty-first-most populous urban region. With an estimated 148,210 residents as of mid-year 2016, Dundee had the second-highest population density in Scotland, at 2,478 inhabitants per square kilometer (6,420 inhabitants per square mile). Located on the northern side of the Firth of Tay, which empties into the North Sea, it is part of the Eastern Central Lowlands. It is one of Scotland’s 32 council areas, and is known as Dundee City.

Located in the old county of Angus, the city grew into a burgh in the late 12th century and became a major commercial port on the east coast.

The city grew rapidly throughout the Industrial Revolution, especially in the nineteenth century when jute production centered in Dundee. This, together with the city’s other important businesses, led to Dundee’s moniker as the “jute, jam, and journalism” city.
