Dorset south-coast town fronting an 11km sandy beach — historically a Victorian seaside resort, now home to JP Morgan's second UK office and a deep retiree population. The Town Centre + Westover Road axis and the seafront promenade anchor the walkable cores; the Triangle is the dense food-and-bar district. UK has no DNV; Skilled Worker or Global Talent. The structural draws are blue-flag beach access, the warmest sea temperatures in the UK (16-18°C summer peak), and 1h45m rail to London Waterloo. Tourist density is real June-August.
