For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Liverpool is a city. The Wirral is an area on the other side of the Mersey containing many small towns that nobody has ever heard of so rather than saying that they live in say Bebington, they would say they lived on the Wirral because then people have a rough idea where they're from even though they have never heard of Bebington
