What about Salford? The average age for a man's health to start declining in England is 63. In Salford, it's 46. Must be to do with living in proximity to that toxic cesspit where the scum play <ok?
It is but some nice places nearby. Consett and Stanley are ****holes surrounded by ****holes

I have been on a slippery slope in terms of moving house for work... Started in Newcastle, then moved to Birtley... Then Sunderland... And now Boro...
So in order for me to continue my descent into hell... Put these places in order (from best to worst). Feel free to break down the likes of Newcastle into constituent parts, and add other areas as you wish...
Also, include a ****hole line in your list --------------
To differentiate the nice places...
Newcastle
Wallsend
North
Hexham
Middlesbrough
Gateshead
Durham
Sunderland
Darlo
Hartlepool
Stockton-on-Tees
Alnwick
Redcar
Billingham

I’m surprised the citizens of Huddersfield don’t climb the Arqiva tower and jump off. It’s a horrible cityHuddersfield for me was always one step away from Hell...going out of the far end of Hell that is.
First time I ever went to Huddersfield it was on a grey, overcast November day and it had just started with drizzling type rain. It would have been enough to send Krusty the Clown on a cigarette smoking bender.
Have never seen a place as so inherently depressing as Huddersfield before or since including the then allegedly worst place in Britain to live, Salford.
Good shout with MethilTo be fair, none of the places mentioned come close to two of the biggest cesspit **** holes in Britain - Methil and Coatbridge.
Coatbridge is the ****ing twilight zone.

South Shields is third world.
Thought I would have to read up on South Shields as it couldnt really be that bad. Found these marvellous quotes:
"The main industry in South Shields is shoplifting; other than that there is no noticeable means of making a living, since there is no industry and few offices."
"If you don’t like the sea, beach or river, then the only reason to want to live in South Shields is because you have learning difficulties."
"The pubs in the local area also show little class. The Green Baize, a pub in Tyne Dock serve you as long as your over 10."
I quite like Shields. The beachfront is pretty decent.Thought I would have to read up on South Shields as it couldnt really be that bad. Found these marvellous quotes:

Laygate in Shields is the absolute pits

At least you both got a chance to meet Albert while you were up there.North Shields does not appear on your list of possible locations ? Jude.
Last time l was in Shields (place of my birth) it looked like a fookin war zone on a particularly bad fookin war zone day.
I was stood in the street down by the quayside with my Mam, and we were trying to remember the best way to get to where my Great Granny used to live in Coronation Street.
This fella came up to us and said to my Mam, Howay Bonny lass, l know you, don’t l. My Mam ignored him, he came staggering closer and said, Hoy, Bonny lass l know you. jeez you could smell the booze on him from 6 ft away.
He attempted to engage my Mam again, but she had had enough of him by now.
Bonny lass he cried, l know you, oh do you now replies me Mam, yeah and l knew you when you were sober, now hadaway before l get proper radge.
Suffice to say he went on his merry way, lol, l had never heard my Mam speak like that before, it was epic. You can take the lass out of Geordie land, but you can’t take the Geordie out the lass, eh Hinny.

Stockton is an absolute dump. Billingham and Hartlepool are ghettos.
