9 Most Deprived Areas in Scotland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- What are the most deprived areas in Scotland? Under normal circumstances, no country would want to deprive any part of its territory. However, think about this; why do people move from one part of a country to another? If they are not internally displaced by war, insecurity, or natural disaster, they move because they want a more quality standard of living. If truly they can have access to a better life elsewhere in the same country, the area they are living in is most likely deprived. Are there places like that in Scotland, I mean places that are deprived? Certainly, as you would see in this video about the 9 most deprived areas in Scotland!
Of course, there is never a country whose all areas are equally developed or enjoy the same social amenities. It’s simply impossible to have an even distribution of wealth in a country. Even so, the gap between the haves and have-nots shouldn’t be too wide as we have it in the case of the most deprived areas in Scotland.
How do you know if an area is deprived? To spotlight deprived areas needing more governmental attention, the data from the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) comes to bear. To determine the level of deprivation, the access to health, housing, education, income, employment, security, and social service was measured. The following places are found to be the most deprived based on those yardsticks.
9. Barlanark, Glasgow
Let us start with Barlanark, a district in Glasgow, situated on the east of Budhill, Shettleston, and Springboig, and northwest of Baillieston, that also shares borders with Springhill and Swinton at the west and with Easthall, Easterhouse, and Wellhouse at the south.
The SIMD yearly rankings have been rating Barlanark alongside other areas in Glasgow as the most deprived areas of Scotland by official data. The road leading to the area is of lesser quality. About 31 percent of the Barlanark’s residents at the East End of Glasgow can be classed as ‘income deprived.’ This is double the national average. Also, some 29 percent of these people are ‘employment deprived.’ This is triple the national average while 15 percent of them are on prescribed medication for mental health, which is double the national average.
8. Pitkerro, Dundee
The next of the most deprived place in Scotland can be found in Dundee. We are looking to Pitkerro, an area in Dundee. Together with Kirkton and Hilltown also in Dundee, Pitkerro falls within the worst 10 percent of deprived districts in Scotland.
The Pitkerro House, which was remodeled and relandscaped by Robert Lorimer in 1902, has done nothing in taking Pitkerro out of the rank of most deprived areas of Scotland. The area once had three primary schools and one secondary. The oldest being St Saviour’s RC High School which was eventually closed in June 2008 when the decrease in the number of pupils couldn’t be controlled. The school was merged with Lawside Academy at the next academic session to form St. Paul's Academy. A similar fate befell Mosgiel Primary School and Mid Craigie Primary School the following year. Other schools in Pitkerro were amalgamated in 2018.
Considering these educational disadvantages alone, you would agree that Pitkerro with its two major stores is one of the most deprived areas in Scotland.

#Scotland
No mention of Blackhill/Provanmill, Niddrie, Craigmiller, Easterhouse, Cranhill, Possilpark. There’s a lot of deprivation in this beautiful country.
Scotland still is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, according to us your good old friends at the other side of the North Sea. Love you Scotland 🇳🇱❤🏴
🇬🇧🤝🇳🇱 🤴 🤚 💙 🗡 🛡
I'm not full Scottish and I too love Scotland
Yes Scotland is Beautiful.
Yasss!! Coatbridge is finally on the map!! 💪
Already on the map. Right there in the Buckfast Triangle. 😏
Keyword here is deprived. Greenock is stunning, with outstanding scenery and fantastic history but like many towns in the UK slowly being robbed of its culture, heritage and identity.
Once a thriving shipbuilding centre, now everything shut down...
greenock is filled with enough drugs to make pablo escobar jealous
Dundee where I'm from has so many drug dealers and stuff happening that's just not good
That was a public information film by the Scottish tourist board.
Yes, Greenock is deprived in parts but there is a lot good about that town. Just over 30 mins to Glasgow on a frequent train service, amazing views over to the Argyll hills, great leisure facilities and some parts of the town (the west end) are really nice places to live. Inverclyde as a whole is an amazing place to live, it tends to be very specific parts that you have to be wary of.
This is the same of all areas. I'm a bit disgusted by this video. I'm English and live in Coatbridge and when I see videos like this, it's no wonder there is so much animosity in Scotland towards the English!
Inverclyde is a beautiful place the towns are shite holes mostly due to the efforts of those who live there !! They treat the place like a toilet or council tip depending on their needs at the time. I was born in Gourock 60 yrs ago . Growing up it was a beautiful wee town well kept and looked after by it's inhabitants. Then they formed Inverclyde council and it all went to rat shit. Greenock councillors set about exacting a revenge on the town . Shipped all their junkies and problem families into Gourock and trashed the place. !!!
Having worked in Greenock for a few years, looking after the delightful teenagers who live there, I can only agree. For many of the residents, the ready availability of Heroin and other class A drugs is another major bonus of living there.
I’ve lived many years in Greenock and currently live in the Port (Highholm street) and compared to 2000, the area is so much better. Just across the road from me is a huge shopping area with like Tesco and TK max boots etc. it’s a shame about the oak mall though as so many stores remain empty. But I love Inverclyde.
Hey, if it's not Inverness, you are winning.

This is hilarious cause I totally relate to this. I'm living here for 9 months now and got to know Mil-gai just last week! 😂😂😂

It's funny listening to his mispronunciation of Scottish names.
@@RounakSamdadiaI don't want to be picky mate, but I'd be saying 'Mul-gai...' 🤣👍🏴
I've visited many cities in many countries and seen much worse than anything shown here. Yes there are unemployment blackspots where the government needs to help but the residents of many of these places have a role to play too. Poverty is no excuse for burnt out cars, vandalised properties, graffiti and the likes. If you take pride in what you do have, improvement and investment will follow.
Beware my friends, I am from s Wales valleys which are also deprived. This is how it goes, property is cheap with a lovely view. Outside developer's move in for the kill / buy to rent market and so push up prices. Soon, local people can't afford to live in their own community, resulting in ethnic cleansing. This is rife in the west and north of Wales, but I never thought the s Wales valleys should become desired by middle class English city dwellers fleeing from the grime. Embrace your communities cos the establishment want you to move so they can move in.. Heddwch / Peace from the Cymru.
I'm surprised that the S.Wales valleys have held out for so long. Anyone wanting a Southern rural lifestyle is completely priced out of England, Wales is the next logical step.
Well that is something that is definitely happening. I work as an electrician on social housing and these housing associations are everywhere. There aren't many council owned properties, they are all privately owned.
Pp😊m
Deprieved areas,look around, look at the type of shops, look at the way people dress,that tells you all you want to know.
Ferguslie is honestly not a terrible place, it's not the most appealing place but it's got some lovely features. There's always been a good community in the area, some good people. Definitely an interesting place but I'm glad to have grown up in ferguslie.
I was born in Paisley in 1955 and there were good and bad people, and the one thing that we all had in common was everyone was piss-poor.🏴💯😎
Same - all good people. Dad woke up and drove his van one morning and all his tyres were gone 😂 the shed also got ransacked. Apart from that, it’s a nice place, close to ASDA and motorway connection anol so why would you wanna live there
Everythings relative, I grew up in a town that was hit hard by factory and mine closures and even then it was old fashioned and had nothing there, I moved away at first opportunity but moved back for a few years in my 20's and liked it, specifically as it had excellent and cheap priced old pubs. and very cheap and high quality take aways, and had a lot of beautiful scenery around within very short distances, I moved away to close to Glasgow and the rent was cheaper, more work and more transport links and miss where I grew up.
Your English accent will go down a storm with this video, and I'm English too!
I'm from greenock but moved to Dublin I miss back home. It might have its bad points but there are people from there that are the nicest people u cud meet. Some real diamonds in the mud ❤
You find very few diamonds in mud
Deprivation is everywhere in Scotland .I was brought up in Drumchapel where the weans bite the dugs .😁😱💚 Wouldn't change a thing growing up.
I was brought up in Drumchapel loved it, place has went right down hill now though
Jukkie land
@@Azureecosse pleased they ended up happy, people don't help themselves nowadays, think they are owed a living. X
@@deborahjohnstone7930 Scotland needs to become an independent country to fight against poverty.
In the Drum even the dugs had to go around in pairs😁
You have obviously never been to any of these areas.
I live in Coatbridge and like everywhere there is a huge divide in wealth. It has new housing developments everywhere and all the land has been purchased for future developments. You can also see from the pictures it's hardly run down looking. It has instant access from both entrances to the town to the motorway. 15minutes from Glasgow and 30minutes from Edinburgh. Coatbridge is at the heart of the central belt of Scotland due to its access to the motorway and growing at some rate because of this.
Your conclusions really are surprising.
He cited his source in the video. Data doesn't lie. Building new houses doesn't magically fix the social issues of an area
@@cthree7792 investment does though and it always starts with land and housing. It does make a huge impact. I mean look at Glasgow as a whole compared to 30-40 years ago. Even Easterhouse is considerably better compared to 30 years ago. Want to know why? They demolished the old and built new houses. It doesn't sound to me like you know what you're talking about at all. What a nonsense comment.
@@cthree7792 Data lies. It is manipulated all the time.
Agreeing with others here, the pronunciation is abysmal. Pitkerro is not a district of Dundee it's a road which runs between Mid Craigie and Linlathen. There's a lot worse places than here.
Yes,arbroath is a real shithole
Adding a map as you go along would help us foreigners get a better sense of where things are. I find myself pausing to research, then down the rabbit hole of distractions. Great videos though. Dreaming of more time traveling in retirement, but on a low budget. Ok, more time spent traveling. If I could 'go back' I'd be in my 20's, , & in Dunoon.
My hometown, Dunoon. My immediate family members still live there.
Excuse me, you failed to mention wester hailes in Edinburgh, I was once mugged by a dishonest 9 year old there.
He was 4 at the time.

Having driven through Jaywick near Clacton in Essex - all those places look like exotic holiday destinations.
Scotland better than england as at least we dont av a nob for goverment borris johstone is urs
I had the unfortunate experience of living in Arbroath, very racist towards English....even when you are half Irish...Dicks
Jaywick is a lovely place. Yes it is deprived but a place is it's people and they are nice folk.
Pitkerro isn't an area its a road that has some lovely houses on it, and the picture they show is garden allotments not houses.
Love it when people talk about building affordable homes. What they mean is developments that are designed mainly for shared ownership. Its a scam to make money yet think they are doing people a favour. Tempting the gullible with nice new houses “yes, YOU can move in with a low mortgage and own a 25% share”. The developers have a nice little earner with these types of properties. Shared ownership is a con because the rental portion on the unowned share increases every year (and can be £300 a month to start with on a house worth £170k), and if you wish to sell after paying money into it for years, you will only get a percentage of the value because you dont own it outright. If you retire and still dont own 100% of the property, will you be able to afford to live on just the government pension ? If you sell, you get very little back so you wont be able to afford to buy anything else. A lot have no idea what they are getting themselves into as they get older with these houses.
scam
Bearsden deprivation is the shops running out of Advocado and Quinoa
Roflmao yes very true you could add Bothwell and Newton Mearns to that list too!
I’m from Ferguslie and I was not shocked to see it on this list
used to test my running their
Ferguslie Park has had a lot of money and time invested in it more than anywhere else in Paisley. Doesn't seem to make any difference
The FEEG will always be the FEEG its the criminal community that makes it what it is - i remember working in the outreach centre, i put two sticks of computer ram on the table next to the pc i was fixing and went ot the other side of the room and when i came back it had been nicked - i was told later never to leave anything lying unattended that was my first experience of the FEEG!

I would have replied 'You bet I will !' But no, she said 'Oh I'm fed up with this, I think I'll give this job up and go on the dole'. My guess is, she now lives in a 'deprived area'.

@@garrygemmell5676 that is a fiction and you know it! Who would choose to live like that when there are jobs out there!
Linwood no more.
We expect English people to mispronounce Scottish place names, but at least include all the consonants. Balanark? Whit? Cawntyne... Listen to Billy Connolly's song Three Men Frae Carntyne.
The reason most of these places like Greenock (I can't believe it's worse than Port Glasgow) is because they are full of ex shipbuilders, ex IBM, Semiconductors, Texas Instruments employees, ex Tate and Lyle workers... There's a pattern here, you close down places of work, you get unemployed people. Same as Bathgate, Linwood, Ravenscraig... Not to mention the coalmines. I feel a Proclaimers song coming on...
It’s prounced. Bar-Lanark.
Interesting information

North Lanarkshire council is the reason the 3 blocks in the town centre went downhill . The council turned it into a drink and drugs den by who they moved into these houses . Ex prisoners(including peodophiles) drug dealers and alcoholics . I watched it decline over the 39 years I lived there but they are due for demolition by 2025

@@garrygemmell5676 I'm defo from Glasgow. I was one of The Pool occupiers twenty years ago and next Spring 2022 there shall be a new state of the art pool and well-being centre in Calder Street.. There is a distorted narrative which consists of stereotypes which weaves in the air about Govanhill. However, I know many lovely people who are doing great work. It does have its issues, like many inner cities. There are independent bookshops, Locovore organic store, upcycling, recycling Community Gardens, community Magazine, etc. However, I fully understand I won't and can't convince you otherwise. We are propelled by the stories we take on and the underlying theme gets stuck. So wishing you all the best. It's Christmas, peace and goodwill to you.
Greenock was a thriving industrial town with shipbuilding, sugar refineries, electronic industries and all the smaller industries who are suppliers. The reason for its decline is Margaret Thatcher in the 80's who closed down the shipyards and their offshoot industries in the eighties and did very little to replace the thousands of lost jobs .
Labour also did very little to halt Greenock s decline as no significant new employment was attracted to the area apart from call centres and of course a rise in the need for carers as the general health and wellbeing of the people suffers in a declining healthcare system which, especially during the present circumstances, falls short of meeting basic needs of the people. And now we come to the SNP reign over the Scottish people and things have declined even further in healthcare, education social services especially in solving the drug problems in the area. A new system of government overall is what is required as the only ones who benefit from the present system are the politicians and their in crowd buddies. The country could be run far more economically and the excess money redistributed amongst the people to improve standards if living in every area. Get rid of the "GREED IS GOOD " philosophy of Thatcherism and we'll all be better off.
I understand what you are saying about Thatcher but remember cant blame everything on her and this was 45 ish years ago, she gets blamed for a lot of things but wasn't necessarily her fault plus the latest bunch of tyrants in power have done little for the people of Scotland, I don't like many of them but the SNP seem the worst.
Shipyard were doomed to fall anyway, but a couple of years later due to cheap competition from China. All European shipyards met the same fate, East German and Polish in the end.
The reason the shipyards were doomed to fail was corporate greed putting profit before the people's wellbeing. That's the reason the shipyards failed it was manipulated by a tory government whose interests were not for the people but for maximising profits for big businesses at the expense of the British and European people anyone thinking otherwise is living in cloud cuckoo land.
We need a totally new people orientated system in the UK, run by the true majority ie the people and current democracy doesn't cut it.
@@elizabethwatters6610European shipyards failed due to cheaper labour force from China and greed from shipowners, not governments. Goverments were attempting to help but were unable to cheat economic rules. First to collapse were huge yards in Sweden and Denmark, due to very high wages. Danish yards survived slightly longer ( gigantic Odense shipyard ) only thanks to big order from Maersk ( A.P. Moller ) - biggest ship owner in the world and government subsidies. Then UK shipyards, German and finally Polish collapsed. Only cruise ship production survived: Turku yard in Finland, Lloyd Meyer in Pappenburg in Germany, Chantiers d'Atlantique in St. Nazaire in France and 2 or 3 Finncantieri yards in Italy. China, South Korea and even Japan are unable to compete and deliver demanded vessels so cruise ship industry in Europe seems to be still unthreatened.
Yes, maximising profits at the cost of people's jobs and well-being by big businesses, the greedy elite and probably exploiting the cheap labour in the process
Thank you very much. This will be my target list for running a trip, devoid of the usual "madcap, selfie driven" tourists, encountering the real 21st century Scotland.
I would like to point out that South Alloa is a completely different place from Alloa and is not deprived , average house prices are probably somewhere around over £200 thousand the data the makers of this video used probably included the Marr Policies in Alloa which is the other side the north side of the river, this on a map looks close however there is no longer a ferry there and its a 30 minute drive from South Alloa, bad research on video makers part there,interesting attempt though .
Do the most depraved places next.

#1 - GREENOCK - a town under Labour Party stewardship since the end of the Second World War till the present day. I do wonder how many constituents had previously voted for the Labour Party - a political group that at one time was in power not only in the UK, but in Holyrood and most of Scotland’s local authorities and did nothing to stem the rise of poverty and deprivation.
If anyone thinks that this is a scandal brought about by the SNP (caretakers of a devolved government in a parliament designed to perpetuate minority administration) then they have very short memories or have never opened a book. Perhaps the voters in these ten areas have recently been in search of a different path from the one which has been well trodden by their Labour voting parents and grandparents.
Look to the SNP, not fairly distributing, the money it gets from England, because people there don't vote for sturgeon,
@@penman1289 What ‘money’ does Scotland ‘get’ from England?
Dennis Healey former UK Chancellor of the Exchequer - “Scotland “pays its fair share” and that “these myths” (drawn by Westminster politicians, portraying Scotland as a subsidised state dependent on the UK for charitable handouts, with higher levels of debt and a dependency on the public sector) are simply perpetuated by those that oppose independence … the oil wealth had been squandered by Westminster rather than invested, while being underplayed (in value terms) by multiple UK governments to subdue calls for Scottish independence”.
But you know better I suppose Danny. Fair’nuff. I’ll take your word for it.
It's not in Labour's interests to stem poverty and deprivation, cos they will run out of voters. Remember, it was a Labour cabinet M.P. who had been educated at a Public School, who closed down most of the grammar schools
@@angelarussell3491 only a selfish person who has a job ,would say such a remark, narcissist.
@@penman1289 You need to tell me what it is you disagree with vis-a-vis my remarks. It's no argument just insulting me and calling me names. What do you disagree with and why ?
Is this out of date agree with some of it but ferguslie park is now mainly private housing. Port Glasgow imo is alot worse than Greenock and there are some nice housing estates coming into Greenock from Renfrewshire and the bit that borders gourock is really nice. Agree with the east end though my father came from carentine. Less said the better.
By coming in from Renfrewshire, I take it you mean Bridge of Weir & Kilmacolm? Agree these are nice as well as the west side of Greenock approaching Gourock. The majority of Greenock is slum town and there seems to be a lot of rival scheme gangs for such a small place.

What crap ,not a mention of the south of Scotland,some parts are so deprived that they are not even mentioned ( deprived and forgotten)
Coatbridge and surrounding towns definitely suck, Bellshill nearby isn't much better, but going into Coatbridge, or Airdrie- you really see it. North Lanarkshire in general is deprived with Motherwell probably being the best place due to it's good transport links and nice walkable town center, where most of the shops are actually not boarded up, at least in Bellshill, where I live, there are nice walks and I can get a train to Glasgow or Edinburgh regularly- I dunno Shotts looks pretty bad too, it has nice rural areas but Shotts proper has very bad transport and very little to do- would NOT want to live there, at least if I was in Coatbridge I could hop on a bus somewhere nicer!
Thing is though please don’t judge the people to the state of the area ,there will be dafties etc but good working folk as well

I'm not surprised bar-l on that list, it's went right down hill in the 20 yrs I've been away, drove through it lately and it's as if the council has abandoned it??
I was born in Ferguslie back in the 50's, was a great place to live, then the local council decided to put all the scum from other estates into the one place, Ferguslie, from then on it became a sh*thole, really sad to see tbh.

Havnt watched it yet... I'll assume Ballingry abd lochgelly will be on it..!

People move for more than just quality of life. People move for all sorts of reasons. Employment, family ties, financial and social reasons. You shouldn't just claim that people move just to improve their quality of life.
Everything you just mentioned was tied to “quality of life” genius

Have you ever been to these areas? Merkinch is not deprived and coronation park got knocked down in the 80s and is classed as the kessock ferry...
Or just the ferry
Twin towned with Basra....I moved up here over 30 years ago my first house was in the Ferry and it was spotless. I moved up from Peterhead and Fraserburgh I've lived in both and I can say hand on heart that the Ferry is like paradise in comparison to both towns. There's a lot of decent people down there and a lot of folk work tirelessly to help the area and some of the nicest people in town live there. There are idiots in every town or city and not just in the deprived parts either.
@@sheilamitchell2215 you're not painting a good picture of Peterhead or Fraserburgh.
@@bigteddy66 I'm speaking about the town itself not the people....both are very run down and regularly vandalised. Years ago both towns took a real pride in the many different shops and businesses but like everywhere else retail parks sprung up and folk go there businesses fold and both town centres look neglected and shabby. Both used to be very successful fishing ports but these days are long gone and I lived and worked in both when fishing was at its peak. In both towns Saturdays was usually shopping day and the town was mobbed and shops thrived but now most are closed because of the Internet the extortionate rent and rates and the likes of Tescos swallowing everything up. Yet the people are the most kindest generous genuine warm and welcoming folk out and I'm proud and privileged to be a North East quine!
I don't think Coatbridge should be on this list tbh
Depends what part of Coatbridge like he said Cliftonville
Yes i agree i thought that was rather harsh!
Can we transplant Greenhills in East Kilbride or the Murray?
I am a native of Greenock. It used to be a lovely place, and there are still many lovely parts of it, before Margaret Thatcher came along and tore the heart out of it by closing down the shipyards.

I am extremely angry 😠 about this list why is my town Airdrie not in the top 3.
Is that the old ibrox.
How is Lanarkshire though
Yeah, my home town of Greenock is #1!
I wish someone could have put him right, about how to pronounce the names of places? It just sounds so amateur, especially when the camera work and video are good!
what is snp?
Couldn't the person making this video at least have researched the place name pronunciations? It started with a total mispronunciation of Barlanark and didn't get much better.
Yasss Greenock is best at something 👌
Seaton in Aberdeen is also really deprived.
along with all the areas around Seaton.
These look better than 90% of small towns in Canada
LOL....Scotland is not deprived compared to places like Alabama and Mississippi in the USA. UK is ahead of a good part of the world.
Edinburgh. Any corporation housing estate.
Love the way the narrator can't pronounce Barlanark.
Girvan and Maybole. The land that time forgot.
Haha so true but the chippy in Girvan does a great special fish we always pop in on the way home from Culzean lol Mind you I always take a chibb!
@@garrygemmell5676 Yeah the marina chippy was good. I grew up in Girvan but moved away to Edinburgh 17 years ago. Was in Girvan last summer and as soon as you drive up the high street the shops all look neglected.
@@StewartL Yes but many of the little towns are like that its quite sad to see the boarded up little shops all in a row must be a nightmare living there now - what do you do all day if you dont have a job - drink, smoke the blaw, stay in and play xbox and not much else with the attitude of the kids these days!
When doing your research into these areas you obviously felt comfortable in the Pronunciation of them , you failed horribly.
Blaming SNP as if there were no Schemes in Scotland before the SNP took power, if anything the schemes were a lot worse back then and a hell of a lot more dangerous places to live.
Really? Lol open your eyes then
@@GrahamReid34 some of us have
@@Azureecosse just cause it’s still awful, there’s a lot less crime more drugs but less hassle generally. Think yours glasses are the tinted ones.
SNP SHOULD PUT MORE MONEY INTO SCOTLAND AND STOP BLAMING WESTMINSTER!!!
@@joetanjm yeah cause they don’t get their money from Westminster at all and spend more than they do comparatively. I don’t vote snp but I also don’t tolerate ignorance.
The guy has obviously never been to Broomhouse ,Niddrie or Wester Hailes in Edinburgh.
Im absolutely raging, smid data yes etc but the presenter clearer doesn’t have a clue regarding the areas he can’t even pronounce the name of the first location properly!!!!!???? What good came from this video? For what benefit was it created etc? If moving to a new area everyone can google and visit it in Scotland so please don’t repeat this waste of air time!!! All this does is bring people in these areas down, in Scotland we’re all about trying to bring each other up 💗 #people make scotland!!!! 💗💗💗
You forgot pilton I live here it's so rough,poor muggings, stabbings, arson on a daily basis. Anti social behaviour
6:24 Ferguslie Park is easily the roughest place I have ever been in my entire life
Really? Try Easterhouse about 1am on a Friday or Sat night or Springy or well there are loads...
Try Middlesbrough..anytime..awful.
Seriously, how can you comment when your pronunciation of the areas is shockingly deprived!
Slightly bemused with this video, my family lives up in Aberdeen, Fraserburgh areas and there is definatly money up there trust me. Alot of oil opff shore workers, alot of farming. Alot of BMW and Range Rover. Obviously inner citys same as everywere but out in the sticks there is money in them mines.
Can you please recommend a peaceful and safe rural area to retire to that is about 30-60 minutes away from either Edinburgh or Glasgow? I would love to retire in the woods with privacy and no near neighbors..yet only be about -30-60 minutes away from a large city with a variety of good restaurants and entertainment. Thank you!
@@Nightbird. Newton Mearns the largest suburb in the whole of Europe - where else - and if you have the money Thorntonhall area really quite pukka but unfortunately areas like that are full of the most insuferabke snobs who think they are better than anyone else just because they live in a 50o grand house (with a 490 grand mortgage) and a second hand bmw or merc with privatge plates to disguise the fact its a 10 year old car but hey its all about the fur coat and nae nickers brigade in thay places INNIT#1
Loves how he pronounces ballanark lol its Bar Larn Ark - Gave me a chuckle anyway!
Its actually known by the locals as Scumdee not Dundee and its the whole of Dundee that is deprived full of druggies and alcoholics we call these places a STABB INN!
A lot of that is wrong you never mentioned GIRVAN, EASTERHOUSE, GORBALS, TURBANHILL, QUEENS PARK. PORT GLASGOW
Queens Park is an absolute slum now - huge change in the last 50 years.
@@hoofie2002 Yeah even the Hamilton Accies wont live there now!
It's a bit unfair lumping Girvan in with the other places...unless you meant Govan...
It's criminal that council haven't renovated those beautiful old red sandstone tenements .
Hiya@@petecallaghan5451 ,
Oh, I know the score mate and it makes my blood boil that they continue to get away with all of the four points you make, above .
Line their own pockets and pensions, first and foremost !!!
Greenock my home town 🤣🤣
Went there once. Lost car keys and someone offered to hotwire it for me 😂😂
@@alibali193 hahaha might seem like a Shite hole but most of the people mean well haha
Aye same here bro 😂
@@weefernsy7 agreed. He thought he was helping me. They had been dropped by a friend down a street drain. He then went head first down the drain to retrieve them. He had a heart of gold
Simd is unsuited to representing rural deprivation because of the more dispersed nature of people and communities… there are some extremely deprived communities in rural scotland that dont even get a look in thanks to scottish government methodologies - have a look at new cumnock/ kirkconnel/ kelloholme for example. Ex mining towns with intergenerational unemployment affecting majority of the community. Miles away from anything. Its more like russia or north korea there rather than scotland. At least they have indoor toilets and only occasionally take a dump on the pavement.
Barlanark prounced as Bar Lanark not barla nark . hahaha
buckhind mentioned but no kennoway? lol.
Was the text written by an AI bot? So many grammatical howlers and unnecessary repetition.
Am from Denny canny believe we never got a mention 🤣
Bar-lan-ark
Question..... Why not most deprived top 10 ???.
Hows clydebank no on that list
Drugs are killing Scotland
From Greenock and yep its a toilet full of scummy dealers and junkies. The council do not help by spending the publics money on stupid things instead of improving the town.
So which are the good cities to live in Scotland then?
Aberdeen
It’s Bar Lanark!
The rule that always works in all relationships throughout the ages. In this short video we consider a story that happened in a very interesting time - in times of the Virgin Queen Elizabeth I, whose exceptional reign has been called The Golden Age of England: ua-cam.com/video/VgD-o6GMv90/v-deo.html
pitkerro is just a road that separates mid craigie and linlathen and not a scheme the wooden houses you showed is linlathen housing estate and also you showed the plots from the graveyard which has nothing to do with pitkerro road or linlathen. hilltown kirkton and st marys are all worse than linlathen.
Unfortunately there are so many more places that could be added.
