I used to live there for a couple of years. It’s bad. The street you were walking - groups of 6 (man/kids) just randomly stand outside the off license shops like hookers in Dam. No one respects the street signs and everybody just acts like in a zoo. Istanbul grill is the bomb though so you kinda get used to it. Never had a problem and I was always on my own.
Yes the groups of blokes outside every other takeaway! Big groups too! Mental place. Thanks for watching and the comment 👍 I think people think it's dramatised but they have no idea!
@@matthewcohman1171 honestly, every review of Peterborough on UA-cam (that I've seen while scrolling, there may be nicer ones..lol) is of Lincoln Road and/or Millfield only. As if one area, just off town represents the whole of the city 🙄. Not that I think Peterborough is great lol, but it's not that bad, and there's much more to it than Lincoln Road and Milfield
It is not the all Peterborough people that made it a bad place , It is a mix of Drug addicts /dealers and people from overseas . It was a wonderful place to live and I should know.
I grew up in Peterborough before the immigration influx. Millfield and the Lincoln Rd area was always home to the Asian community which wasn’t that bad, until the Council / Housing associations decided to house Eastern Europeans there too. This is where the troubles come from. I have escaped PTown now but every time I go back it seems to have declined somewhat!
Something tells me you're from Asian community, as I've yet to encounter Eastern European that wants to impose it's rules to this country, with some time they blend in very well unlike your kind.
The nightclubs have been either shut down or burned down ( insurance job ) where I live. The local paper recently said, that s particular nightclub was shutting due to lack of students coming to the area, and yet there are more buildings going up for “ more students “ apparently….but we all know the real reason this country is building more houses like crazy
@@mjh5437yh if u say so 🛎️ end. U still not eating a gram of starch if not for their investments in ur country and your countries involvement in different corners of the world. Crazy thing is u wont and cant do nothing abt it and if u had this type of speech in public u kno u wont make it that far ;)
I can remember when Peterborough was a nice place but years of mass immigration and the foreign invasion and failed multicultural project shows the country how disastrous uncontrolled immigration is
No. It's not immigration. It's your government. Do you people ever take accountability for your doings or do you just like to blindly blame immigrants for everything? It's ridiculous. Just because you don't like certain people colour doesn't mean they're responsible for the mess YOU created. Imagine being an 85% majority in your own country and then blame the 15% for the mess the country is in. Absolute delusion.
It's not just immigration it's immigration from certain places. Peterborough was always multicultural since the 40s/50s and was always a quiet place with a manageable population, but the last ten years or so have seen huge numbers coming in and it has changed the city beyond recognition.
I go to Peterborough every now and then, usually as a busker, or for other music events or to catch a train to somewhere north. I’ve worked in the city centre late at night, attended events and workshops at Millfield Community Centre and walked from one end of the huge, dark station car park where it always sounds like there’s a nightingale singing after getting off a train late at night. Like every city it has its share of problems, but I’ve never felt threatened there any more than anywhere else.
In Birmingham I forget the long road it’s a total no go zone to whites after 6pm . The guy who told me as I was working in Chesterfield told me this as he was obviously from Birmingham, he was in his late 50s getting said he will never go back and he said it was enforced by Muslim gangs ! I myself had this in Firvale in Sheffield whilst working there in the day ! The country has gone . I imagine lots in London , Manchester the list goes on . government past and present well done hope your happy
Certainly scared of shadows. Places are certainly run down by the lack of government funding. Alcohol and drugs are a big issue. Good and bad in any town or centre. The city council has been underfunded for years. Having many takeaways doesn't necessarily mean a bad thing. The poor quality of jobs and pay is an issue around the UK .
My 17 year old nephew got jumped by 3 guys(non-Peterborough) early evening. Stiches in back of head and concussion! So sad how it has gone, Cathedral is amazing. Another great vid, subs still climbing. Well Done!

When I was little in the 1980’s we would go on the train to Peterborough for a day out. It was great then! Queens gate shopping centre had just opened and was filled with great shops. It had something brand new to the area a Mc Donald’s! Hard to believe now but that was the only one for miles around. Or sometimes we would have tea at the reflections cafe on the top floor. Always felt safe and had were happy times. Now wouldn’t even go back to visit. Prefer to remember it as it was. Enjoyed your video though.
Got my first pair of Red Doc's from there the day queens Gate opened, was our first holiday from Cumbria to see my Uncle who had just left the army and moved there from Germany, used to love the toy shop that had all the Star Wars and Action Man stuff in there also the HMV store in the square
We had a school Geography trip to Peterborough in the late 90s. We were literally chased out of one the council estates by a large group of "certain" people
I have the misfortune of living in Peterborough. Moved here in 1989 - it felt like a proper, bustling, affluent place with loads of decent pubs, clubs, no hassle, decent shopping, loads of businesses in town etc, much like most towns and cities back then. There has always been a foreign population, particularly Italian, Indian and Pakistani people with no underlying issues to speak of. We suffered huge volumes of immigration from all manner of countries, and with it the world’s problems. Criminal gangs, people on the fiddle, unemployed, homeless, compounded by a general breakdown in our own society with crap parenting and everything that goes with it. If you walk around the cycle path there is fly tipping everywhere, general litter. People don’t care for their properties. Flats and HMO’s everywhere. The city centre has been dying for years, compounded by COVID and now it’s just £1 shops, charity shops, takeaways, 2nd hand electrical shops, boarded buildings and doorways that house the homeless, alcoholic’s and drug takers. It reflects the majority of towns and cities across the country - I travel on business all over and it’s the same story with the same reasons. Country is lawless - political parties are complicit in the countries downfall. The end.
We did a long term job in Peterborough 2022-2023 - always liked the place and never had a problem. Like everywhere, it has some downsides, but also plenty of positives. Great architecture and history, beautiful Lido in City Centre for summer swimming. Good restaurants etc. This video is looking for the problems from the start.
I agree the cathedral square area is stunning however the estates surrounding Peterborough are sketchy for sure. All the locals in the comments agree, I guess if your working in the centre and staying near by it's ok? Thanks for watching and the comment
Not only that, but I am getting alpha male vibes. Plus, I imagine you went out with your big burly mates. Scary for the rest of us, but wow, for Mr butch here, "what's the problem"? It's meatheads like this that give meatheads a bad name. So we open ourselves up to the possibility of getting stabbed just so that we don't disappoint Mr Alpha. Narcissist much? In case there is any confusion I would being sheeeeeting my pants in that situation. I grew up on a council estate back in the 70s and 80s, I knew how to handle myself. The degenerates of my day (me included) are not the same as those of today. The bible talks about the wicked going from bad to worse. As I have witnessed three further generations I have witnessed this to be true.@@JoefishJ
a long term job means you are/were working... architecture and history doesn't mean much to those living in poverty or areas with high unemployment unfortunately
Just laughable to think Peterborough is the worst place to live . No comparison to the deprivation of many towns and cities . That so called no go area would be considered middle class in the real deprived places.
Have to agree with this comment, up north there many areas with worse areas, parts of Liverpool, Burnley, etc come to mind. This video started off ok. But then got a bit silly, you walked through a council estate in the daytime, whats the problem?? Where there gains of yobs chasing you away? No did not see anyone. No different to any other estate. Then the road in the day, it has a subway on it and a co-op funeral directors! If the people working at these places, felt, 'so unsafe', they would not even be there. This road is 10 a penny in 50% of London. Spotter looking at you, I did not see him. Try pointing the camera forward as opposed to looking at your face. Else one would presume your exaggerating to point to making stuff up innit brov!
Agreed. I'm from Peterborough and now live in the Finsbury Park area of London. That New England part of Peterborough would be a completely normal part of London. People just panic when they don't see white people 😅
I lived in Peterborough for 45 years .Used to be a great place growing up with so many good memories. Was 10 pubs down Lincoln road used to be a great pub crawl into town back in the day think there is only the crown left there now ? I visit Peterborough 4 times a year to see my mum and mates who still live there BUT notice a change everytime i go there not for the better. Went to see a mate last time got a taxi to his told the drive lincoln road please he pulled up around the corner said to dangerous to let you out there :O what has the city become that i grew up and loved as a boy .
@johngoddard4459 Ah... The infamous “Crown to town” was attempted by many, achieved by few back in the day!!! (And anybody that made it to town was usually too wasted to get into any of the great clubs anyway 😂). I grew up in the area but moved away in my mid 20’s, 25 years ago. Peterborough was great back then. Fantastic shopping, buzzing nightlife, not to mention the Lido in the summer holidays!!! Crime was low, and we’d feel perfectly safe walking round the city centre as teenagers. I too go to visit family occasionally, and it’s so sad to see what Peterborough has become. Everybody local knows the reason for its demise, but I’ll let other people make there own conclusions. 😢
No town should be seen as the norm, what has happened to this country, no law and order No money being spent on towns, everything just left to go to rot.
This country is in serious need of rehabilitation, I hope this situation replicated in so many places , doesn't usher in a further neglect, polarization and hoplessness. Noone is an island. Many people who live in deprived areas are good people doing the best they can. And drug habits are not confined to the poorest in society . Its hidden from view. So time to work together I think and push for positive change, the alternative is bleak. Thanks Joe👍
I moved to Peterborough in the 70s i grew up by the 80s I would go into town when there was only like 3 nightclubs, By the early 90s it was booming loads of shops clubs pubs it was pretty safe to walk around at night etc then we got loads of new people turned up from all over the world in like 2003 some are ok but the others oh well. Now Lincoln road is a no go zone, and the city center oh my god its derelict nothing like it was at all full of homeless and junkies and strange dodgy shoplifters and pick pockets from all over the world. I never go to town center unless I really really have too. All the surrounding areas are getting worse as well, starting to resemble lincoln road area. What can you say the cathedral is nice shame about the rest lol... would love to get away to country
I moved away in 2003, live on the south coast now. Never had any problems, around Lincoln Road, Millfield, city centre etc. Sad that it’s gone like this.
Normally Cathedral Cities are among the nicest in England. It’s no coincidence that the trashing of the city from the 60’s on coincided with the downward spiral. Town planners /architects in post war England and including our era , were /are a total failure, their lauded “brave new world” turned into a “Clockwork Orange” type dystopia.
Peterborough and Lincoln Road was fine up until the 2000s (lived in Peterborough from 1974) Used to spend a lot of time down there in pubs, shops (anyone remember AnB records?), my brother was murdered on Rhubarb Bridge in 98 and i left Peterborough in 2012. My parents and sister still live there and so do my children and friends. When i go back like i do a few times a year, it just looks horrible in certain areas. One of the most bizarre incidents by the then council was when they housed Iraqi (iirc) immigrants in the Gladstone Strret area and there were riots because the locals in that area did not get on with that certain group. The council had no idea and just decided that is where they would be housed and meant houses were set on fire and there was trouble. The local paper reported on it all at the time.
i live here for 25 years and he just dramattizzing normal life here in pborough welland dogstorpe bretton and westwood are worse than millfield by a mile away..he makin drama 4 views dont take me wrong i like what he doing showing what uk is really but he was let down here bad localy info ..agree last 10 years whole uk down toilet ...poverty drugs homelessness u name it ...
Serious question. Do you come from a small village? I live in Peterborough. It’s not utopia but where is for a city of its size. I’ve had nights out in Millfield. Tapas bars, cafes. Restaurants. Pretty sure I could take you to many worse places.
I know, as someone who regularly frequents some of the rougher parts of Liverpool and Manchester, I didn't think it looks that bad, I thought it was satire at first, just walking around with a victim mentality...
I’ve also had nights out on Lincoln road in the little tapas bars, end up talking to locals and always a fun night. Still regularly cycle down there at all times of day and night, lived in the area for 30 years, it doesn’t look pretty but it’s no more dangerous than anywhere else

I bet its the same in whole europe, im from sweden and our town Oskarshamn were booming from the middle of 1800s to 1990s but then everything got abandoned, the only thing that is working here now is the Scania factory and SAFT battery factory, then just some stores, half the town is abandoned and depressing, me and my gf are moving to a village nearby because its too boring and depressing here, i dont want my kids to grow up in this shithole, its very important to have beautiful surroundings with nature, the industrial abandoned shit makes you so unhappy. And criminality is rising too, a disabled guy got robbed and brutaly murdered outside my work, i came to work just hours after he got murdered and i still can see that pool of blood in my mind, we have had many more murders around here, my neighbor got robbed 3 months ago and much more shit, The far right is rising in scandinavia too, i dont blame the people but our government havent done anything for years.
A Far Right Revolution is inevitable and exactly what is needed in these social circumstances.....As Sir Isaac Newton said...."For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction".....The Far Left are going to have to lay in the PC Wokemaniac beds they have made for themselves.
He was with me the whole time, it was a super sketchy place. Tons we couldn't film for obvious reason, if I did you would understand! Thanks for watching and the comment mate really appreciate it
Why is this happening? it is so frustrating to see, every town near to me the councils are demolishing the shopping centres that are popular, businesses are closing yet they was queing out of the doors less than a year ago
Its a very odd place. I walked around it a few times about 10 years ago looking at cheap houses as someehwere cheap to relocate to...even in the day time there were some very rough sights and people.... It felt to me like a prime example of a potentially quite pretty place could be turned to crap....glad i never moved there in the end.
Those crime stats are shocking!!! My daughter's a copper in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, which is generally considered the roughest town in Derbyshire (outside Derby city). In January 2024, there were 61 crimes, 26 of which were violent or sexual offences. And the figures here are just for ONE estate!!!!!
I know that really puts it into perspective. I suspect alot happens that doesn't get reported too. Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the content
Hey bro 👊👋 thanks for the kind words! Honestly only started a couple months ago, my aim was a thousand subs by the end of the year! And here we are now, overwhelmed mate! Thanks for watching and the support 👊
Go to Peterborough quite often, my family lives slightly outer peterborough in a village...I enjoy going to the city as you say its quite deceiving, always visit the cathedral grounds as its a nice visit in the summer. But I do hear alot of stories from family about how much it has degraded over the years...I've heard criminals from London are relocated here now but not sure how much truth there is to it...but that may be reason
It went downhill massively after the Iraq war when immigrants were being put in rented accommodation and private landlords started cashing in big time and this was 2005. I lived in Whitsed Street from 92-06 and although it wasn't the greatest area, that street had a sense of community and everyone got on and the nags head pub at the end was a good old fashioned pub in the houses too. There were even the parents of a premier league footballer that lived down there who were lovely people, but within 2 years from 04-06 it all changed. Once the buy to let's started happening, those that had lived there for years, myself included, sold up and moved away. Such a shame but it's a lot worse now and the last time I drove down there was a couple of years ago to show my son the first house he lived in.
I live a stone's throw from Millfield and regularly visit day and night, either out on a run, or for food and drink & always find it lively, friendly and fun (though clearly a bit edgy!). For me, Peterbrough is drab, has its challenges with homelessness and the total abandonment of the nightlife district is really sad to see but it also has unreal transport links and, compared to much of the UK, isnt a bad place to be. Its great though to see someone shining a light on how our towns are being left to rot! Your video of Plymouth was especially interesting as it really spotlights the shocking levels of abandonment and dereliction in my original hometown that, to me anyway, are on a different level to the challenges here in boro and such a terrible shame given its waterfront and old town are up there with the best youll find anywhere!
I live in South Lincolnshire not that far from Peterbrough. Only even been through Peterborough on the train, heard a couple of bad things in the past. Is it really that bad?
It's not that bad, yes there is a homeless and drug problem but what urban centre doesn't? I used to work in Millfield, regularly walked around there late at night/early hours of the morning, as I have done all over Peterborough, good areas and bad, never once had a problem, not there or anywhere. I still frequent Lincoln Road as some of my favourite takeaways are there. Side note, Millfield isn't an estate, it's an old neighbourhood that's had a massive influx of generations of immigrants over the years coming in and out of the area, people don't stay long, and landlords don't care about maintaining their properties, they just cram as many into HMO's as they can, so the area isn't cared about or maintained like a normal community.
I remember going to London from Edinburgh in the 80’s on the then LNER main line and hated when the train had to stop at Peterborough station. Why should a place be so uncomfortable 🥹
I used to live down Lincoln road until a couple of years ago I never had any problems then, I used to walk out at night and go to the shops all the time, down towards town is definitely more dodgy though , we came back for a weekend recently and went to a pub in town, it was a total state and we didn’t feel entirely safe when we were out ,
What happened? The city must have been nice all around at some point in time perhaps back in the first half of the 20th century and earlier? How did the city morph into this condition?
By the way did you go to the nicer parts ? Nope the areas you walked down have been bad since the early to mid 80s , all the shops you mention ? How many are English ? very , very few . I do not care what anyone says Peterborough has been ruined by Drug users and people from abroad . Same with all the cities and towns across the UK . Get rid of drugs , get rid of the wrong people moving over to the UK and you will see the issues reduce .
Andrew Neilson, Director of Campaigns at the Howard League for Penal Reform, said: “This report on Peterborough reveals how people in prison are being denied the support they need to move on from crime. It also shows how problems in jails spill out into the towns and cities around them.
Sad to see. I grew up in south London, and moved to town just outside Peterborough to essentially escape the path I was going down. Now it looks like where I left, Croydon 🙁 I hear my old home Spalding is doing bad
@@JoefishJ I was staying in the travel lodge across from the abandoned nightclubs, If I knew you guys were going to be around would have stayed about !
Joe Fish new to your channel. Very interesting. I only go to Peterborough for the annual Beer 🍺 festival. I don't know were some people are saying that Peterborough is 90% White or English. I struggled to find anybody who could speak English! Locals have always warned me about Lincoln road. Unfortunately this is going on in all are major towns and cities. We are seeing the joys of Multiculturalism! I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

My late Mum was born in Alma Road which is just off Lincoln Road in 1929 and I used to go down on holiday back in the 60s and 70s. Loved the place and there was never any hint of violence or trouble of any kind. Just goes to show how a place can go to ruin if drug addicts take over.
You're showing how rundown parts of the country has become, it's a big shame, will it improve I would say no, I'm just glad we live where do. Nice work it needs to be seen,
I dont live in peterborough but ive worked there a lot of the past 8 years and i would say the homelessness seemed to have been reduced some way or another, i used to see a lot of tents in the numerous tree belts across the suburbs but this year i havent seen any.
Not surprised you were viewed as being suspicious walking around with a camera. I returned to the Millfield area last year, having first visited over 55 years ago and it’s certainly changed for the worse. However, I’ve lived in various cities where such areas exist and I don’t think Peterborough’s the worst.
As you move away from the city centre it indeed changes, like many youtubers before you got were every ones knows that the trouble is and missed the oportunity to see Nene Park and the newer neighborhoods like Hamton as that will not bring you even a fraction of views you need for the chanel to grow.
Mate that's not even the worst bit you should of went down the embankment behind the famous asda at 8-10ish open needles everywhere, homeless crackheads living in tents and just so much more activities but I'd be careful.

Most of them are yes but not all, they have to have cash flow somehow so they get family to come over and learn how not to cut hair properly and wash the cash 😂
@samueljarvis1276 they got more cash than us , they can pay 3 , 4 , 5 grand for a dinghy ride to the UK. Meanwhile taxed to death brits can't afford a week holiday in Spain.
Just moved from Peterborough to Devon about 5 months ago and 20 years ago I would have missed it and the night life was amazing but hate it now and lived there all my life, don't miss it and it's just absolutely rubbish there.. Ruined :( ..
Lived in Peterborough 18 years, it has gotten worse and worse over the years quite sad really, don't really feel safe in the city anymore, the sounds of sirens are common, I've been involved personally in a couple of different occasions I was assaulted within the city for no reason
Ram Raiding actually originated in Newcastle Upon Tyne (or at least in the North East area) It's like the lads, shoplifting Holiday originated in Liverpool, Ram Raiding originated on the North East Coast.
I have nothing but fond memories of Peterborough. My grandparents lived there and used to visit it often! Amazing cathedral . - Something changed, and we know what that was.
Live in Peterborough and it reminds me of parts of south London… especially Lincoln Road and Millfield after hours. Never felt threatened there and people largely mind their business. I think you’re overreacting a bit, and the unwelcome stares are probably because you’re walking with a camera. Don’t forget that a lot of businesses down there are illegitimate.
That was a far out dodgy walk in Millfield Joe. Once me and a mate walked through Princess Av in Toxteth (1990) at night and were surrounded by a gang of black guys. We were told to 'get the f..k out or we'd be cut up laa.'' You wanna check that district out. Yeah, a different animal at night. Mark
I recently passed my class 1 in peterborough... 10 days of training from a car license to a class c+e license. My instructor use to say if you can manage this city then you'll be fine everywhere else 😂 So the top 3 most difficult situations I got put in whilst doing my class 1 in the city centre areas was Lincoln road - I was at the red lights with an arctic but a taxi was in the way parked towards me in my lane. I couldn't overtake because of the steady traffic on green lights oncoming and sometimes the lights went red. There was a massive queue of traffic because of this. So many drivers were angry but none could see I was stuck because a taxi was blocking my route. The taxi guy got in the cab and drove off and then I was able to move. He really didn't give a shit. 2nd instance, I was coming from river gate to Bishops road. There's this mini roundabout there, I had to take the 2nd exit on it and pull out safely. So I'm moving 40 foot worth of trailer out of a junction that has to gove way to people doing uturns at high speeds without indication. Does anyone indicate or slow down anymore. Nope. 3rd issue of peterborough sucks was the people. Cyclists and moped users were using pavements and were overtaking the lorry constantly 😂 I've been driving a hgv for 9 months now and I've driven through london, Edinburgh and cardiff and they felt easier than peterborough's Lincoln road or its shifty roumdabout.
Unfortunately millfield alot of cons than pros but you will not find an empty shop on that strip. The locals have tried working with the police to tackle crime Unfortunately its always empty words. Most group of men i agree not a great sight as a local you know all they are doing is having a beer and eating sunflower seeds. The deprivation of the city people can blame immigration Unfortunately the council is to be blamed for that.
I used to live there for a couple of years. It’s bad. The street you were walking - groups of 6 (man/kids) just randomly stand outside the off license shops like hookers in Dam. No one respects the street signs and everybody just acts like in a zoo. Istanbul grill is the bomb though so you kinda get used to it. Never had a problem and I was always on my own.
Yes the groups of blokes outside every other takeaway! Big groups too! Mental place. Thanks for watching and the comment 👍 I think people think it's dramatised but they have no idea!
@@JoefishJ I was raised there, it is a shithole I moved out 2010 and never looked back
Absolutely right
Some men standing outside somewhere makes a city so bad lol. I live in Peterborough. It can be bad but there’s way worse places than Peterborough
@@matthewcohman1171 honestly, every review of Peterborough on UA-cam (that I've seen while scrolling, there may be nicer ones..lol) is of Lincoln Road and/or Millfield only. As if one area, just off town represents the whole of the city 🙄. Not that I think Peterborough is great lol, but it's not that bad, and there's much more to it than Lincoln Road and Milfield
People make places.Wrong people and the place turns to shit.Thats what ive found.

It is not the all Peterborough people that made it a bad place , It is a mix of Drug addicts /dealers and people from overseas . It was a wonderful place to live and I should know.
It was lovely years ago, lovely shops and area
I grew up in Peterborough before the immigration influx. Millfield and the Lincoln Rd area was always home to the Asian community which wasn’t that bad, until the Council / Housing associations decided to house Eastern Europeans there too. This is where the troubles come from.
I have escaped PTown now but every time I go back it seems to have declined somewhat!
Bs
I'd take eastern Europeans over Muslims every day.
Keep blaming foreigners for your failing country!
All white town blaming its problems on immigration
Something tells me you're from Asian community, as I've yet to encounter Eastern European that wants to impose it's rules to this country, with some time they blend in very well unlike your kind.
The nightclubs have been either shut down or burned down ( insurance job ) where I live. The local paper recently said, that s particular nightclub was shutting due to lack of students coming to the area, and yet there are more buildings going up for “ more students “ apparently….but we all know the real reason this country is building more houses like crazy

Huge elephant in the room here called immigration.
There is nothing wasist about the truth . Duh
No. It's not immigration. It's your government. Do you people ever take accountability for your doings or do you just like to blindly blame immigrants for everything? It's ridiculous. Just because you don't like certain people colour doesn't mean they're responsible for the mess YOU created. Imagine being an 85% majority in your own country and then blame the 15% for the mess the country is in. Absolute delusion.
Well said.
@bernardfitzsimons6942yep 👍
It's not just immigration it's immigration from certain places. Peterborough was always multicultural since the 40s/50s and was always a quiet place with a manageable population, but the last ten years or so have seen huge numbers coming in and it has changed the city beyond recognition.
I go to Peterborough every now and then, usually as a busker, or for other music events or to catch a train to somewhere north. I’ve worked in the city centre late at night, attended events and workshops at Millfield Community Centre and walked from one end of the huge, dark station car park where it always sounds like there’s a nightingale singing after getting off a train late at night. Like every city it has its share of problems, but I’ve never felt threatened there any more than anywhere else.
In Birmingham I forget the long road it’s a total no go zone to whites after 6pm . The guy who told me as I was working in Chesterfield told me this as he was obviously from Birmingham, he was in his late 50s getting said he will never go back and he said it was enforced by Muslim gangs ! I myself had this in Firvale in Sheffield whilst working there in the day ! The country has gone . I imagine lots in London , Manchester the list goes on . government past and present well done hope your happy
The fact that Muslims have the power to control the British in their own country

Certainly scared of shadows. Places are certainly run down by the lack of government funding. Alcohol and drugs are a big issue. Good and bad in any town or centre. The city council has been underfunded for years. Having many takeaways doesn't necessarily mean a bad thing. The poor quality of jobs and pay is an issue around the UK .

When I was little in the 1980’s we would go on the train to Peterborough for a day out. It was great then! Queens gate shopping centre had just opened and was filled with great shops. It had something brand new to the area a Mc Donald’s! Hard to believe now but that was the only one for miles around. Or sometimes we would have tea at the reflections cafe on the top floor. Always felt safe and had were happy times. Now wouldn’t even go back to visit. Prefer to remember it as it was. Enjoyed your video though.
Got my first pair of Red Doc's from there the day queens Gate opened, was our first holiday from Cumbria to see my Uncle who had just left the army and moved there from Germany, used to love the toy shop that had all the Star Wars and Action Man stuff in there also the HMV store in the square
You guys already had fried food that would probably still make you less fat than McDonald's
We had a school Geography trip to Peterborough in the late 90s. We were literally chased out of one the council estates by a large group of "certain" people
Asian ?
@@002lisamarie I'd guess yes
I have the misfortune of living in Peterborough. Moved here in 1989 - it felt like a proper, bustling, affluent place with loads of decent pubs, clubs, no hassle, decent shopping, loads of businesses in town etc, much like most towns and cities back then. There has always been a foreign population, particularly Italian, Indian and Pakistani people with no underlying issues to speak of. We suffered huge volumes of immigration from all manner of countries, and with it the world’s problems. Criminal gangs, people on the fiddle, unemployed, homeless, compounded by a general breakdown in our own society with crap parenting and everything that goes with it. If you walk around the cycle path there is fly tipping everywhere, general litter. People don’t care for their properties. Flats and HMO’s everywhere. The city centre has been dying for years, compounded by COVID and now it’s just £1 shops, charity shops, takeaways, 2nd hand electrical shops, boarded buildings and doorways that house the homeless, alcoholic’s and drug takers. It reflects the majority of towns and cities across the country - I travel on business all over and it’s the same story with the same reasons. Country is lawless - political parties are complicit in the countries downfall. The end.
We did a long term job in Peterborough 2022-2023 - always liked the place and never had a problem. Like everywhere, it has some downsides, but also plenty of positives. Great architecture and history, beautiful Lido in City Centre for summer swimming. Good restaurants etc. This video is looking for the problems from the start.
I agree the cathedral square area is stunning however the estates surrounding Peterborough are sketchy for sure. All the locals in the comments agree, I guess if your working in the centre and staying near by it's ok? Thanks for watching and the comment
Not only that, but I am getting alpha male vibes. Plus, I imagine you went out with your big burly mates. Scary for the rest of us, but wow, for Mr butch here, "what's the problem"? It's meatheads like this that give meatheads a bad name. So we open ourselves up to the possibility of getting stabbed just so that we don't disappoint Mr Alpha. Narcissist much? In case there is any confusion I would being sheeeeeting my pants in that situation. I grew up on a council estate back in the 70s and 80s, I knew how to handle myself. The degenerates of my day (me included) are not the same as those of today. The bible talks about the wicked going from bad to worse. As I have witnessed three further generations I have witnessed this to be true.@@JoefishJ
All... 😂.. false comments and I don't know how you got your stats.. ridiculous pair of foolish vloggers .. scared 😂
Try visited a lot of the estates. Terrible.
a long term job means you are/were working... architecture and history doesn't mean much to those living in poverty or areas with high unemployment unfortunately
Just laughable to think Peterborough is the worst place to live . No comparison to the deprivation of many towns and cities .
That so called no go area would be considered middle class in the real deprived places.
Have to agree with this comment, up north there many areas with worse areas, parts of Liverpool, Burnley, etc come to mind. This video started off ok. But then got a bit silly, you walked through a council estate in the daytime, whats the problem?? Where there gains of yobs chasing you away? No did not see anyone. No different to any other estate. Then the road in the day, it has a subway on it and a co-op funeral directors! If the people working at these places, felt, 'so unsafe', they would not even be there. This road is 10 a penny in 50% of London. Spotter looking at you, I did not see him. Try pointing the camera forward as opposed to looking at your face. Else one would presume your exaggerating to point to making stuff up innit brov!
Agreed. I'm from Peterborough and now live in the Finsbury Park area of London. That New England part of Peterborough would be a completely normal part of London. People just panic when they don't see white people 😅

I lived in Peterborough for 45 years .Used to be a great place growing up with so many good memories. Was 10 pubs down Lincoln road used to be a great pub crawl into town back in the day think there is only the crown left there now ? I visit Peterborough 4 times a year to see my mum and mates who still live there BUT notice a change everytime i go there not for the better. Went to see a mate last time got a taxi to his told the drive lincoln road please he pulled up around the corner said to dangerous to let you out there :O what has the city become that i grew up and loved as a boy .
@johngoddard4459 Ah... The infamous “Crown to town” was attempted by many, achieved by few back in the day!!! (And anybody that made it to town was usually too wasted to get into any of the great clubs anyway 😂). I grew up in the area but moved away in my mid 20’s, 25 years ago. Peterborough was great back then. Fantastic shopping, buzzing nightlife, not to mention the Lido in the summer holidays!!! Crime was low, and we’d feel perfectly safe walking round the city centre as teenagers. I too go to visit family occasionally, and it’s so sad to see what Peterborough has become. Everybody local knows the reason for its demise, but I’ll let other people make there own conclusions. 😢
I used to live there,,its not as bad as people say,,although theres a massive drug and homeless problem,but thats just any city nowadays
Lincoln road at night was super sketchy!!
Defo mate,i used to live 5 minutes away from lincoln rd? Some of the stuff i saw was mental mate
Where immigration is drugs are
No town should be seen as the norm, what has happened to this country, no law and order
No money being spent on towns, everything just left to go to rot.
I can assure you it's not a "no go zone" and Peterborough, while crap and boring, is not the UK's "worst city". That is all
I noticed that nearly every shop was foreign.
Thanks for watching and the comment 👍
Yes. That's why it's bad.
This country is in serious need of rehabilitation, I hope this situation replicated in so many places , doesn't usher in a further neglect, polarization and hoplessness. Noone is an island. Many people who live in deprived areas are good people doing the best they can. And drug habits are not confined to the poorest in society . Its hidden from view. So time to work together I think and push for positive change, the alternative is bleak. Thanks Joe👍

I moved to Peterborough in the 70s i grew up by the 80s I would go into town when there was only like 3 nightclubs, By the early 90s it was booming loads of shops clubs pubs it was pretty safe to walk around at night etc then we got loads of new people turned up from all over the world in like 2003 some are ok but the others oh well. Now Lincoln road is a no go zone, and the city center oh my god its derelict nothing like it was at all full of homeless and junkies and strange dodgy shoplifters and pick pockets from all over the world. I never go to town center unless I really really have too. All the surrounding areas are getting worse as well, starting to resemble lincoln road area. What can you say the cathedral is nice shame about the rest lol... would love to get away to country

I moved away in 2003, live on the south coast now. Never had any problems, around Lincoln Road, Millfield, city centre etc. Sad that it’s gone like this.
Normally Cathedral Cities are among the nicest in England. It’s no coincidence that the trashing of the city from the 60’s on coincided with the downward spiral. Town planners /architects in post war England and including our era , were /are a total failure, their lauded “brave new world” turned into a “Clockwork Orange” type dystopia.
Yes it's the London/Scottish overspill that started the decline and the Asian, African and Eastern European immigration that ruined it.
Its not as bleak as Bradford,.Middlesbrough, Stoke on Trent, Huddersfield, Dewsbury or Luton

Peterborough and Lincoln Road was fine up until the 2000s (lived in Peterborough from 1974) Used to spend a lot of time down there in pubs, shops (anyone remember AnB records?), my brother was murdered on Rhubarb Bridge in 98 and i left Peterborough in 2012.
My parents and sister still live there and so do my children and friends. When i go back like i do a few times a year, it just looks horrible in certain areas.
One of the most bizarre incidents by the then council was when they housed Iraqi (iirc) immigrants in the Gladstone Strret area and there were riots because the locals in that area did not get on with that certain group.
The council had no idea and just decided that is where they would be housed and meant houses were set on fire and there was trouble. The local paper reported on it all at the time.
Everything about it is depressing even night time and even daytime whenever jts sunny your so lucky you escaped

Serious question. Do you come from a small village? I live in Peterborough. It’s not utopia but where is for a city of its size. I’ve had nights out in Millfield. Tapas bars, cafes. Restaurants. Pretty sure I could take you to many worse places.
I know, as someone who regularly frequents some of the rougher parts of Liverpool and Manchester, I didn't think it looks that bad, I thought it was satire at first, just walking around with a victim mentality...
PETERBOROUGH IS HORRIFIC
PETERBOROUGH IS FAR WORSE THAN ANYWERE IN MANCHESTER OR LIVERPOOL
I’ve also had nights out on Lincoln road in the little tapas bars, end up talking to locals and always a fun night. Still regularly cycle down there at all times of day and night, lived in the area for 30 years, it doesn’t look pretty but it’s no more dangerous than anywhere else
Borough is awful, a hellish dumping ground! It's sad, I used to go regularly as a kid during the 90s... Urban decay is a huge understatement!!

I bet its the same in whole europe, im from sweden and our town Oskarshamn were booming from the middle of 1800s to 1990s but then everything got abandoned, the only thing that is working here now is the Scania factory and SAFT battery factory, then just some stores, half the town is abandoned and depressing, me and my gf are moving to a village nearby because its too boring and depressing here, i dont want my kids to grow up in this shithole, its very important to have beautiful surroundings with nature, the industrial abandoned shit makes you so unhappy. And criminality is rising too, a disabled guy got robbed and brutaly murdered outside my work, i came to work just hours after he got murdered and i still can see that pool of blood in my mind, we have had many more murders around here, my neighbor got robbed 3 months ago and much more shit, The far right is rising in scandinavia too, i dont blame the people but our government havent done anything for years.

Why is this happening? it is so frustrating to see, every town near to me the councils are demolishing the shopping centres that are popular, businesses are closing yet they was queing out of the doors less than a year ago
Its a very odd place. I walked around it a few times about 10 years ago looking at cheap houses as someehwere cheap to relocate to...even in the day time there were some very rough sights and people....

Go to Peterborough quite often, my family lives slightly outer peterborough in a village...I enjoy going to the city as you say its quite deceiving, always visit the cathedral grounds as its a nice visit in the summer. But I do hear alot of stories from family about how much it has degraded over the years...I've heard criminals from London are relocated here now but not sure how much truth there is to it...but that may be reason
Thanks for the comment, yes definitely on the surface a beautiful city. However like most places the underbelly doesn't always match.
It went downhill massively after the Iraq war when immigrants were being put in rented accommodation and private landlords started cashing in big time and this was 2005.
I lived in Whitsed Street from 92-06 and although it wasn't the greatest area, that street had a sense of community and everyone got on and the nags head pub at the end was a good old fashioned pub in the houses too. There were even the parents of a premier league footballer that lived down there who were lovely people, but within 2 years from 04-06 it all changed.
Once the buy to let's started happening, those that had lived there for years, myself included, sold up and moved away.
Such a shame but it's a lot worse now and the last time I drove down there was a couple of years ago to show my son the first house he lived in.
I like your channel. Keep up the good work.

I live a stone's throw from Millfield and regularly visit day and night, either out on a run, or for food and drink & always find it lively, friendly and fun (though clearly a bit edgy!).
For me, Peterbrough is drab, has its challenges with homelessness and the total abandonment of the nightlife district is really sad to see but it also has unreal transport links and, compared to much of the UK, isnt a bad place to be.
Its great though to see someone shining a light on how our towns are being left to rot! Your video of Plymouth was especially interesting as it really spotlights the shocking levels of abandonment and dereliction in my original hometown that, to me anyway, are on a different level to the challenges here in boro and such a terrible shame given its waterfront and old town are up there with the best youll find anywhere!

It's not that bad, yes there is a homeless and drug problem but what urban centre doesn't? I used to work in Millfield, regularly walked around there late at night/early hours of the morning, as I have done all over Peterborough, good areas and bad, never once had a problem, not there or anywhere. I still frequent Lincoln Road as some of my favourite takeaways are there.
Side note, Millfield isn't an estate, it's an old neighbourhood that's had a massive influx of generations of immigrants over the years coming in and out of the area, people don't stay long, and landlords don't care about maintaining their properties, they just cram as many into HMO's as they can, so the area isn't cared about or maintained like a normal community.
The trouble is now after decades getting worse and worse.Younger people think it's the norm now.
I live in millfield and my family and many others have been here for decades!
Great videos mate, wishing you all the best on your youtube journey
Thanks for the kind words 🙏 hope you enjoy the upcoming content
I remember going to London from Edinburgh in the 80’s on the then LNER main line and hated when the train had to stop at Peterborough station. Why should a place be so uncomfortable 🥹
Yes agreed a definite feeling in the air. Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the content
i really like your channel . your honesty, reporting and respect for the area you are in
🙏 thanks for the kind words. I really appreciate the support thank you!
I used to live down Lincoln road until a couple of years ago I never had any problems then, I used to walk out at night and go to the shops all the time, down towards town is definitely more dodgy though , we came back for a weekend recently and went to a pub in town, it was a total state and we didn’t feel entirely safe when we were out ,
Shocking scenes there now! Thanks for watching and the comment
What happened? The city must have been nice all around at some point in time perhaps back in the first half of the 20th century and earlier? How did the city morph into this condition?
By the way did you go to the nicer parts ? Nope the areas you walked down have been bad since the early to mid 80s , all the shops you mention ? How many are English ? very , very few . I do not care what anyone says Peterborough has been ruined by Drug users and people from abroad . Same with all the cities and towns across the UK . Get rid of drugs , get rid of the wrong people moving over to the UK and you will see the issues reduce .
Andrew Neilson, Director of Campaigns at the Howard League for Penal Reform, said: “This report on Peterborough reveals how people in prison are being denied the support they need to move on from crime. It also shows how problems in jails spill out into the towns and cities around them.
Sad to see. I grew up in south London, and moved to town just outside Peterborough to essentially escape the path I was going down.
Now it looks like where I left, Croydon 🙁
I hear my old home Spalding is doing bad
Sad times! Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the content
North London, and it is the same… it was not great when I was growing up but it gone down hill like a lemming of a cliff.
I work in Spalding, it's absolutely fine!
@@housinauthority5258 I'm aware of people being set on fire at the tulip festival. That is not "fine"
You can not compare Croydon to Peterborough no way I lived in Kennington and when I tell you Peterborough is nothing like South London at all😂
Thanks for another great video mate!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
I was in Peterborough a few days before, I thought it wasn't actually that bad!
Once you leave city centre it changes!
@@JoefishJ I was staying in the travel lodge across from the abandoned nightclubs, If I knew you guys were going to be around would have stayed about !
Not as bad as Ilford… You genuinely may not be able to go there… You’d more than likely have active contact,
Active contact 😂 military speak? Thanks for watching and the comment.
Come to Doncaster twinned with beruit
Doncaster is going the same way ? All our cities are going down the toilet. Multiculturalism has destroyed Britain.
It looks nice on videos.
The local radio station is heroine fm,seriously
Hereward?
@@markcoleman900 no heroine with an e
I have lived in Peterborough since 1978 and I love it. Great athletics track, cycle paths and road network.
Joe Fish new to your channel. Very interesting. I only go to Peterborough for the annual Beer 🍺 festival. I don't know were some people are saying that Peterborough is 90% White or English. I struggled to find anybody who could speak English! Locals have always warned me about Lincoln road. Unfortunately this is going on in all are major towns and cities. We are seeing the joys of Multiculturalism! I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

My late Mum was born in Alma Road which is just off Lincoln Road in 1929 and I used to go down on holiday back in the 60s and 70s. Loved the place and there was never any hint of violence or trouble of any kind. Just goes to show how a place can go to ruin if drug addicts take over.
You're showing how rundown parts of the country has become, it's a big shame, will it improve I would say no, I'm just glad we live where do. Nice work it needs to be seen,
Thanks for the kind words and for watching. Hope you enjoy the content
What a shame. All those beautiful buildings! 😢
Joe! Look at your subscribers! YAY!! Congrats! Jen
Hey Jen 👋 I know! So crazy. Thanks for the support from the beginning. 🙏
That's what cultural marxism brought
Marx wasn't for mass immigration.
Exactly.
I dont live in peterborough but ive worked there a lot of the past 8 years and i would say the homelessness seemed to have been reduced some way or another, i used to see a lot of tents in the numerous tree belts across the suburbs but this year i havent seen any.
When i was passing through the city center, seemed quite nice- the main shopping centre in particular was fairly impressive
I thought the same then you leave the main city square and it changes fast. Thanks for watching
The only thing that has put Peterborough on the map is Joanna denhenhy!.
I remember that story!!
Not surprised you were viewed as being suspicious walking around with a camera. I returned to the Millfield area last year, having first visited over 55 years ago and it’s certainly changed for the worse. However, I’ve lived in various cities where such areas exist and I don’t think Peterborough’s the worst.
As you move away from the city centre it indeed changes, like many youtubers before you got were every ones knows that the trouble is and missed the oportunity to see Nene Park and the newer neighborhoods like Hamton as that will not bring you even a fraction of views you need for the chanel to grow.
Mate that's not even the worst bit you should of went down the embankment behind the famous asda at 8-10ish open needles everywhere, homeless crackheads living in tents and just so much more activities but I'd be careful.
Cor. Scary stuff. The catherderal.is stunning
The best part of the city. Thanks for watching and the comment
It'll be one of Alan's snack bars soon
Isn't this city the place where immigrants were killing and eating swans?

The juxtaposition of it being such a beautiful city with such horrible issues is just mind blowing.
There's a theory that all these ...... barber shops are fronts for ....... debate? Investigate??? 😅
Most of them are yes but not all, they have to have cash flow somehow so they get family to come over and learn how not to cut hair properly and wash the cash 😂
@samueljarvis1276 they got more cash than us , they can pay 3 , 4 , 5 grand for a dinghy ride to the UK. Meanwhile taxed to death brits can't afford a week holiday in Spain.
@@MartialArtUK hahaha 🤣, that’s funny! But yes it’s correct
Just moved from Peterborough to Devon about 5 months ago and 20 years ago I would have missed it and the night life was amazing but hate it now and lived there all my life, don't miss it and it's just absolutely rubbish there.. Ruined :( ..
Well at least your in a good spot now. Thanks for watching and the comment hope you enjoy the content
Lived in Peterborough 18 years, it has gotten worse and worse over the years quite sad really, don't really feel safe in the city anymore, the sounds of sirens are common, I've been involved personally in a couple of different occasions I was assaulted within the city for no reason
Ram Raiding actually originated in Newcastle Upon Tyne (or at least in the North East area) It's like the lads, shoplifting Holiday originated in Liverpool, Ram Raiding originated on the North East Coast.
Hey joe you interviewed me and a friend near catherderal are you posting that segment?
Hey, yes will be posting it in another video next week sometime. Thanks for the time you gave 🙏
@@JoefishJ amazing no worries! What day next week so I can look out for it!
I have nothing but fond memories of Peterborough. My grandparents lived there and used to visit it often! Amazing cathedral . - Something changed, and we know what that was.
Live in Peterborough and it reminds me of parts of south London… especially Lincoln Road and Millfield after hours. Never felt threatened there and people largely mind their business.
I think you’re overreacting a bit, and the unwelcome stares are probably because you’re walking with a camera. Don’t forget that a lot of businesses down there are illegitimate.
I used to live near and tbh its not as bad as boston thats not too far away from there and its worse than here by far, been to both.
you should look more around peterborough such as stanground and yaxley
That was a far out dodgy walk in Millfield Joe. Once me and a mate walked through Princess Av in Toxteth (1990) at night and were surrounded by a gang of black guys. We were told to 'get the f..k out or we'd be cut up laa.'' You wanna check that district out. Yeah, a different animal at night. Mark
It certainly was! Texteth your brave! Thanks for watching and the comment
@@JoefishJ Ah, good on you mate. Ha, and we were on acid.
I recently passed my class 1 in peterborough... 10 days of training from a car license to a class c+e license. My instructor use to say if you can manage this city then you'll be fine everywhere else 😂
So the top 3 most difficult situations I got put in whilst doing my class 1 in the city centre areas was
Lincoln road - I was at the red lights with an arctic but a taxi was in the way parked towards me in my lane. I couldn't overtake because of the steady traffic on green lights oncoming and sometimes the lights went red. There was a massive queue of traffic because of this. So many drivers were angry but none could see I was stuck because a taxi was blocking my route. The taxi guy got in the cab and drove off and then I was able to move. He really didn't give a shit.
2nd instance, I was coming from river gate to Bishops road. There's this mini roundabout there, I had to take the 2nd exit on it and pull out safely. So I'm moving 40 foot worth of trailer out of a junction that has to gove way to people doing uturns at high speeds without indication. Does anyone indicate or slow down anymore. Nope.
3rd issue of peterborough sucks was the people. Cyclists and moped users were using pavements and were overtaking the lorry constantly 😂 I've been driving a hgv for 9 months now and I've driven through london, Edinburgh and cardiff and they felt easier than peterborough's Lincoln road or its shifty roumdabout.
12:20 that underpass was where a teenager was murdered
Not surprised! Sad to hear. Thanks for watching
When I went to Peterborough a few years ago now, it was really nice. I’m so shocked it’s this bad.
If Scunthorpe was a city it would be featured on this channel but it is a only a town
Soon!! Thanks for watching and the comment. You'll see Scunthorpe on here soon.
Unfortunately millfield alot of cons than pros but you will not find an empty shop on that strip.
The locals have tried working with the police to tackle crime Unfortunately its always empty words.
Most group of men i agree not a great sight as a local you know all they are doing is having a beer and eating sunflower seeds.
The deprivation of the city people can blame immigration Unfortunately the council is to be blamed for that.
