Best/Worse Places to live!!

Yeah, bit surprised at Nottingham.
They said at the beginning of the program they would judge each place on all different aspects yet Nottingham seemed to place poorly on the grounds of crime alone.
Most of the best places seemed to be small towns/villages. Yeah they may be pretty but booooooring!

Not that I read to Daily Mail (as if!), but they had a piece on this yesterday with the lists of best and worst places, and the reasoning behind the decisions:

I live in Nottingham and am pretty disgusted with this. I have lived here 25 years and haven't seen hardly any 'trouble'. I think it is a lovely city.
No offence to liverpool etc but surely they are worse that Notts, i didn't even feel safe walking through part of the city in the day time there with big gangs etc.

It means nothing. York and Edinburgh were near the top of the 'sh1t towns' book a few months ago and they are both two of the most beautiful, affluent cities in the UK with a high standard of living.
Clearly, it's just been designed to generate publicity for the show. And it's worked!

Have you ever actually been to Liverpool? I don't think Nottingaham deserved to be on there but neither would Liverpool, it's a great city.

I worked for a company who were based in Garston for 2 years, that was a "tasty" area, used to have loads of fun with the scallies messing with my car, walking into reception and nicking random stuff etc.

I have been to liverpool, and am not 'calling' it. Sorry.
Just sayin that when i was there i drove round some areas that looked far worse than anywhere in Nottingham.

Yes our scallies are some of the greatest in the world, they make me proud!
I'm glad Liverpool was not on that worst list though, it's taken some much deserved bashing in the past but it's a thrieving city now and really deserves that capital of culture award.

Thats true but I think when you visit most Cities this can happen. When I have had nights out in Nottingham I was aware of the amount of smack heads on the streets but it did not alter my opinion on the city and it's people on a whole.
No city in the world is without rough areas/scallies/crime.
I guess like I said before I don't agree with Nottingham being on that list but don't agree Liverpool does either.
