What's the roughest area of Glasgow

The bit where the maddest * live, nothing to do with football either, just the place that you think twice about driving through.

 

From places ive personally lived its got to be govan...utter shitehole.

There was actually a mobile police unit set up in my street for a while it was that bad

Still got family that live there though.

 

Royston is the worse part I've seen.

 

Barrowfield is the area l refused to go into when l was doing the taxies

 

The fact I have to sit and think about this says a lot about Glasgow, there's so many to choose from

 

Parkmill is a shitehole as well

 

Govanhill. Easily

 

Good shout actually.

Basically avoid everywhere with govan in the name.

 

Aye I think that's probably the winner these days.

My granny used to live in a tower block in Sighthill and it was a shithole year's ago, I thought anyway. No sure what it's like now though..

Possil definitely seems a place where you have to keep your wits about you. Dodge place to get caught slipping when walking round the back of that Sarcens to the petrol station and a wee social club on the left where we thought better of heading for a last drink..

Get conflicting thing's on Knightswood. Some of it student-y but then get told other bit's it's dodge as * just now..

Probably worse area's..

Royston looks rough. Some of Dennistoun I thought was rough but apart from the scheme younger lot's troubling each other, it's all really no that bad..

I'd deffo still say though that London is a more comfortable place to walk about on the whole than Glasgow overall..

 

Aye London feels totally safe any part of it any time of day I've walked about it.

I think Carlton is a bit mental, that is where the Tongs are from isn't it?

 

They've knocked down the blocks in Sighthill now, putting quite a bit of money in to regenerate it.

 

Aye mate. Obviously we have some pretty bad area's down here, but I don't think there's any one area where I would avoid of trouble..

Even area's like Peckham and Brixton (Brixton has for a long time) are very much up and coming area's where people flock too. The young pretentious type's in pop up car park and roof top bar's and raves weekly in Peckham now. Year's ago those very kid's moving in and socialising in all the cafés and spots round that way, would've been getting robbed

 

Kelvinside

 

You * take that back right now,

 

Brixton has the best named street, Electric Avenue

Amazing how the property boom has changed the class demographic in London so completely.

 

I was Stockwell though which was on the Brixton border so no biggin up from me

We were always a higher class

 

Must've been handy for nights out in Brixton?

 

It was no go back then for us
