Only parts of London, but the whole of the other cities? I can assure you it's not all doom and gloom!

Otherwise, yes you're probably basically right.

Portsmouth is quite bad, but not as bad as the places listed. The highest teen pregnancy rate in Western Europe, and the most densely populated city in the UK. Also pretty bad for drugs because of the ports, and the people have an island mentality because the city itself is on an island.

Parts of Londinium are pretty bad.

But Moss side in Manchester has a dodgy reputation.

The other cities are a lot smaller...bar Birmingham but y'know, the whole of Birmingham is a dump IMO.

Newcastle isn't one of the roughest cities in the UK, and the biggest cities aren't necessarily the roughest.

But yes, anywhere remotely big has unpleasant parts and I'm sure places like Cambridge are no exception.
