About

Ford is a residential area in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, Merseyside, north of Liverpool. The name also designates the Ford electoral ward on Sefton Council. Housing is a mix of terraces and semi-detached homes built across the early to mid 20th century, arranged along a clear street pattern. Local shopping is concentrated on a short parade of independent shops and services that serve daily needs, while primary schools and small nurseries provide education close to home.

Community life centres on a handful of parks and playing fields used by youth and amateur sports teams, and on community-run events held through the year. Public transport links connect the area to the wider borough and to Liverpool, helping commuters and students. Council services and neighbourhood groups use the ward boundary for local planning and consultations, so residents often meet through formal and informal forums to discuss street-level issues and small-scale improvements.
