LIVERPOOL is proving it is a “great place to build a life” after the city was ranked third in the country in terms of graduates studying and then staying in the city.

Liverpool is a well-established university city, but had previously struggled to have the career options for many to remain here and progress with their lives.

But this now appears to be shifting, according to new research from student-recruitment marketing agency Think Orion. The report states that for students completing their studies in England in 2025, London had the highest graduate retention rate at 84.2%.
