Dewsbury var et sentrum for det som ble kalt «the shoddy trade», den sjuskete næringen. Filler og ødelagt klær ble resirkulert til pledd, tepper og uniformer. Patrick Brontë, faren til Anne, Charlotte og Emily Brontë var rektor i byens sognekirke. Byen har nå en stor asiatisk befolkningsgruppe, som utgjør omkring 30 % av totalbefolkningen. Det har til tider vært anspent mellom forskjellige etniske grupper, men det har aldri brutt ut større uroligheter. British National Party har i enkelte kretser fått opptil 35 % av stemmene, men har ikke vunnet noe i sete. Den islamske misjonsorganisasjonen Tablighi Jamaat har sitt britiske hovedkvarter i Dewsbury. Dewsbury er et av de fattigste steder i grevskapet, og har sammen med Batley kommet inn i et EU-program for å avhjelpe dette.
