Empty shops

Nationally the East doesn't fare too badly for the number of empty shops - but dig a little deeper and there's discrepancy across the region

In Ipswich about 17% of shops are empty, but at Dunstable in Bedfordshire it creeps up to more than 22%. It's not all bad though in Billericay it barely touches 4% and Cambridge has the lowest vacancy rate in the whole country when it comes to larger centres.
