Inverurie is the largest town in the Garioch area of Aberdeenshire, and is an important service and administrative centre. Inverurie's physical setting is distinctive; enclosed by hills and at the confluence of the Don and Ury Rivers. Inverurie natives speak the Aberdeenshire Doric dialect of Lowland Scots, though the dialect has become weaker in recent years due to an influx of residents from other parts of the UK, and the influence of television and the state curriculum, yet is still spoken to a greater or lesser degree. The estate agents in Inverurie say the town's proximity to Aberdeen has led to its growth as a major commuter town. People relocating to the area who are looking to buy Inverurie property will discover there are a number of large employers in the food processing and paper making industries, and the ANM Group and Thainstone Agriculture Mart. The town's residents have benefited from a number of recent developments, with new housing developments, the construction of new police headquarters, and superstore developments in the town.
