Alsager is a small town in Cheshire East, England, set on the low-lying Cheshire Plain near the border with Staffordshire. It sits roughly between Stoke-on-Trent and Crewe and is centred around a series of small meres, most notably Alsager Lake, with tree-lined streets and pockets of Victorian and Edwardian housing from its growth in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Today Alsager has a strong community feel: a mix of commuters to nearby towns, local independent shops, pubs, good schools and active sports clubs. Its economy leans on the surrounding larger centres while the town retains green spaces, conservation areas and a steady programme of community events and local markets that give it a village-like social life despite modern links to regional industry.
