Bromsgrove, located on the M5 to the south west of Birmingham, is a mixed town with both areas of poor local authority housing and more affluent suburbs. Expanding estates of private housing for Birmingham commuters and affluent commuter villages, tip the balance in favour of the Conservatives who hold the seat safely.
