What are the worst areas in your town or city?

Which part of London is not bad?

I live in Hull. Honestly, the worst part is pretty much everything within the boundary.

I remember going to the cinema in Woodgreen to see Avatar with my father (everywhere else was sold out, and the cinema there was pretty good). On the bus on the way back, there was a ruckus downstairs, and some angry chap was shouting rather incomprehensibly. I later deciphered and heard that he was shouting, "I get paid to kill white people", which was pretty alarming considering that my father and I were the only white people on the bus, and this guy was clearly intoxicated somehow. It didn't help when two boys up the back of the bus flashed their knives at me when I turned round either.

The worst thing about that is that it wasn't that good a film.

Where do I begin?

I always thought Hull was massively underrated! I went to school there (although I lived in Beverley) and never truly understood why people dislike it so much. It does have some shocking parts, that much is true, but the 'Avenues' are nice, as is the old town

Most of an underground map.

Depends on what you mean by worst. In my view the student areas in Leeds are notorious for burglaries, etc. Students must be easy meat.

Yeah, the Avenues and Old Town are lovely, but then you go to Preston Road, Newbridge Road, (highest crime rates in Hull apparently, I grew up there!) and Orchard Park, and wonder how many of them have been guests on Jeremy Kyle...

Everyone complains about Bransholme though, and I don't think it's that bad at all!

Yes, the place is horrendous. Sorry for you experience. It so happens I was robbed on the bus in Woodgreen and I'm an Asian guy. The guy was blowing some quacking duck toy in my face (how lame), then all of a sudden he jumped me with the help of his friend.

But yeah, I would say Woodgreen is the least pleasant area to live in within London. My cousins live a 30 second walk from Woodgreen and you could see the broken shop windows from their house during the London riots...

Ohh Orchard Park is something haha.. when I moved they were in the process of demolishing all the high rise flats (although I swear they just painted half of them?!).

Hyson Green, Radford, The Meadows and the council estates in Broxtowe and Bestwood

Interesting that whenever you mention the worst areas in Birmingham, people instantly think of the non-white areas.

However you have also mentioned Yardley, Quinton and Stechford which are white areas.

You've mentioned all the non-white areas with the worst reputations (except maybe Lozells.)

I think the white areas with the worst reputations are Northfield, Erdington, Kingstanding and Shard End.

:c

Sucks man, were you alright?
