Major towns: Denbigh Rhyl Ruthin Wrexham
Industry: Agriculture, coal mining, quarrying, leather and woollen goods
Famous more for the holiday resorts of Rhyl and Prestatyn, the economy of the area is based on small industry and tourism.

Once an elegant Victorian resort, there was a large influx of people from Liverpool and Manchester to Rhyl after World War II. This had a huge impact on the town and surrounding area, affecting local culture and diminishing the prevalence of the Welsh language.
