10 Poorest Towns in the UK

What are the poorest towns in the UK? Let’s start this by informing you that in this list of the poorest towns in
the UK, there are as many as 7 of them in England. This is
understandable. England’s dominance of the United Kingdom cannot
and shouldn’t be limited to positive stories. If England has the richest
towns and cities in the country, it should also have the poorest. And as
usual, the towns in Northern Ireland remain in the middle, even in this
too-not the richest, not the poorest. So you can’t find them here. At
this point, we recommend that you watch our video about the poorest
towns in England to appreciate why those towns must feature also in
this video about the poorest towns in the UK.
10. South Kirkby, England
This town in the City of Wakefield in West Yorkshire is under the local
government administration by South Kirkby and Moorthorpe Town
Council. We beamed our searchlight on South Kirkby to ascertain the
reason for the soaring rate of crime in this town and we discovered that
it’s poverty. This town is an economically deprived area, according to
the latest statistics from the Indices of Multiple Deprivation. It can be
hard to get a job in this town.
It’s found that South Kirkby has 20 percent fewer Higher and
Intermediate administrative, managerial, or professional households
than the national average. More so, the percentage of those claiming
benefits in this town is higher than the average which suggests that
many people are likely underemployed or on a low salary. No wonder it
has some serious issues with crime.
9. Newport, Wales
Let’s get it straight here and lock it in. We are referring to the town of
Newport, which is a parish on the Pembrokeshire coast in West Wales.
This community which is also an electoral ward is an ancient port of
Parrog at the mouth of the River Nevern in the Pembrokeshire Coast
National Park.
The latest of the Welsh Index of Multiple deprivation statistics which is
released once 5 five years shows that Newport is one of the 10 poorest
parts of Wales. Of Newport’s 95 neighborhoods, 23 in Newport now
rank as some of the most deprived in Wales. This is 24 percent of the
authority. That is the biggest percentage of any in the United Kingdom.
Pillgwenlly, a red-light district of Pill is in big problems with drugs. Life is
also miserable in other areas of the town like Tredegar Park, Bettws,
and Ringland.

If you mcan't make the pictures match the subject being talked about, couldn't you at least try to show images from the same continent??

[@michaellucas4873]

There's no way that some of the places shown are within thousands of miles of the UK. Some are clearly taken in the US and others look more like the Far East!!!

[@green856w]

Pity photos of the actual places mentioned were not shown.

[@reme147]

Why use clips of foreign citys in this video,
too lazy to actually add film of the uk towns whos reputation you've tried to trash or couldn't you find film of these places to justify your incorrect opinion that you have of them?

[@Joshe23]

Coventry town is rich or poor tell me in comments

[@brothersman524]

Not surprised about Blackpool being at No.1 but I would have thought Luton, Mansfield or Rochdale will be there

[@thephoenix3155]

Skegness and Doncaster should be in the list as well.
