In 2021 it had a population of about 85,000.

From 1974 to 1996 Stockton was part of a new county, Cleveland. When that was abolished, Stockton returned to County Durham, except for the southern rural district of Yarm , which was re-assigned to North Yorkshire.

Stockton was a Saxon farming settlement that morphed into a port on the tidal River Tees, but remained small until around 1800. It then burgeoned with industry and shipping powered by the Durham coalfields and Eston Hills iron ores, with steel furnaces, metal-bashing trades and chemicals. In 1822 the first rail was laid here for the Stockton and Darlington Railway, with the world's first steam-hauled train arriving on 27 Sept 1825. The Tees navigable channel was enlarged as ships grew, but Stockton was at a disadvantage to downstream ports and shipping trade was gradually lost. More damaging was the 20th century collapse in traditional smokestack industries. The town has shifted to service industry and retail, and has Queen's Campus of Durham University on the south river bank.

Newcastle Airport has flights from across western Europe and is only 90 min away by rail and metro.

Manchester Airport is better for any destination further out. The hourly direct train to Thornaby takes 2 hr 45 min.

54.5092 -1.4294 1 Teesside Airport ( MME   IATA ) is five miles west of Stockton. It only has six flights a day, from Inverness, Aberdeen, Amsterdam, Alicante and Palma de Mallorca. The hourly bus between Darlington and Stockton calls at the airport.

54.5589 -1.3021 2 Thornaby is the main station, south of the river half a mile from High Street, and near Durham University Queens Campus. Trains from York run hourly, taking 50 min via Thirsk , Northallerton and Yarm , and continue east to Middlesbrough , Redcar and Saltburn-by-the-Sea . From London Kings Cross change at York for this train, total travel time 3 hours.

From Manchester Airport an hourly train takes 2 hr 45 min via Manchester Piccadilly, Huddersfield , Leeds , York then as above to Thornaby, Middlesbrough and Saltburn.

From Newcastle an hourly direct train (which may start from Hexham) takes 75 min via Sunderland , Seaham, Hartlepool , Billingham and Stockton, and continues to Middlesbrough then either Nunthorpe or Whitby.

From Darlington trains run every 30 min, taking 20 min via Eaglescliffe and continuing east to Middlesbrough, Redcar and Saltburn.

Thornaby station has a ticket office and machines plus waiting room and toilets. There is step-free access to all platforms.

54.5699 -1.318 3 Stockton station is north of the river and town centre. It only has the hourly trains between Newcastle and Middlesbrough, which also stop at Thornaby. It's an unstaffed halt with ticket machines, no waiting room or toilets. There is step-free access to all platforms.

National Express runs from London Victoria, once daytime and once overnight, taking 7 hours via Milton Keynes , Leeds or York, and Middlesbrough, and continuing to Sunderland or Newcastle. Megabus doesn't run here, change in Middlesbrough.

Arriva Bus X66 runs every 30 min from Darlington to Stockton (45 min) and Middlesbrough (another 15 min).

Bus X12 runs hourly from Newcastle, taking 2 hours via Gateshead, Chester-le-Street and Durham, and continues to Middlesbrough.

Bus 7 runs from Yarm via Eaglescliffe every 15 min.

Stagecoach Bus 6 runs hourly from Darlington via Middleton, Teesside Airport, Eaglescliffe, Yarm and Ingleby.

Stockton doesn't have a bus station, buses make stops along High St, including National Express which stops at the south end.

Stockton is on A19, the fast highway from York to Newcastle. From the south stay on A1 to Dishforth junction then take A168 to join A19 near Thirsk; don't go near congested York.

The most reliable taxi firm is Stockton Taxis (+44 1642 805805); others get bad reviews.
