I’ve written a longer comment but I live in Pinehurst, you are right in some aspects in can be bad but most people will leave you alone if you leave them alone
SWINDON IS LIKE THE 1970S not much seems to have moved on, flats with communal entrances and hallways and shared gardens are abysmal and are the quickest way to divide neighbours, an Englishman's home is HIS castle, not a shared toilet !
I’ve lived in Pinehurst my whole life and I can honestly say, yes it can be bad but honestly what area in swindon doesn’t have its bad spots it’s not that bad, some people can be assholes but who can’t be, I won’t deny there are issues with the estate but this is mostly down to the council not bothering with it so the residents probably think why should we bother if the council don’t give a monkeys about us, or our living conditions, my house has mould in it, and I live with my 85 year old grandmother who has lung and heart issues, we’ve asked the council numerous times to come and fix the problem but they just won’t, they say they will send someone at some point but that some point never comes, and my grandmother won’t move now, this is her home, she’s lived here for 53 years, my grandad died in the house, we should demand better from our council, local government and Uk government in general!!
Possibly says more about areas I have lived but I look at those shops with the shiny glass and no metal shutters during the day with “nothing of value left in here overnight” scrawled on the shutters says to me it’s not that bad.
I lived with my sister in a fairly large council estate, many moons ago. I lived there for around 4 years. It was so depresssing: from the views of scruffy, badly looked after flats and houses to the usual low-class scum. Of course, many people on the estate were honest, decent folk who couldn't afford to live elsewhere; their only crime being not having too many brain cells. But the overwhelming problem was that people didn't seem to mind living in a waste dump: litter all over the place; beds, sofas, baths, chairs, sinks, and all manner of crap left out to rot. I could not wait to get out of there. Honestly, it doesn't require much money to keep a place clean and tidy - but it does require a certain amount of time and effort, which, as far as I could see, nobody had. I truly do not have any sympathy for them. If people are happy living in places like that, then why should I?
Yeah, it's sad, so many decent neighbourhoods go downhill just because a few bad apples are too lazy or cheap to deal with their rubbish. It quickly escalates, too, once people start degrading the enighbourhood it makes others feel like, 'why should I bother'.
It comes down to responsibility, who is going to clear up other people's mess, especially in a run down area, that would take a Special kind of person... Also big items need transportation, and can cost money that people haven't got to waste... The local Council should make it easy and affordable/free for people to dispose of items, or they simply will just dump it outside, problem solved for them for free... Someone will sort it eventually, then everyone enevitably does the same.. Experiments were done and prove that in a place with No Litter, people are far less likely to drop any🚮 Although i see it seems to have got worse along with the decrease in basic Values, Manners and Morals... Glad you are in a better place now, i know what you mean 😁😂👍🏻
It isn't a coincidence that low income areas have a high proportion of bookies, alcohol shops and pawnbrokers. Designed by the monied who also tell you to blame immigration and not themselves for such deliberate misery.
those migrants aren't exactly free of crime and nett tax payers either. When a country has enough misfits among it's own people, no need to import even more from abroad.
Isn't a coincidence that low-income areas have high proportion of fuckwits who can't be bothered to better themselves and who take pride in the all the crap that litters their estates.
Demographically Per head immigrants do have a FAR higher Crime rate than the Natives, all over Europe... Have a Look at Sweden's crime figures, What a shame they were so open to people that wanted to take advantage of their kindness... They Regret it now...! Shocking and Sad 😢
Ironically, my view is that these kinds of social housing developments - close packed with mandatory, uninspiring architectural design - are, by definition, anti- social. You’ll find, for the most part, I am not wrong. Having dragged ourselves out of the social housing trap by sheer hard work decades ago, we’ve experienced at first hand the anti-social influences rampant in too many social housing developments.
@@ukexplored i visit regularly. The raid you mentioned, with the 19 or 20 something bikes. That was around the corner from where you were recording. Probably not best to look for it though
I live in Swindon, not to far from Pinehurst. The whole town is getting worse, everywhere is getting shabby and neglected. Walk through the town centre the number of people looking scruffy full of tattoos it's a eye opener. The town is full immigrants and asylum seekers. The hospital is only 20 years old and too small.
All these places in Swindon you have visited are characterless. in other words, they all look like each other. They look boring with little to do other than get sloshed. all in all depressing places that just warehouse humans.
Hope you enjoyed this video! If you have any feedback or comments, we'd love to hear them! Do you live in Swindon? Have you been in Pinehurst?

I always say bad areas everywhere, but l always feel so sad for the honest decent working person who have to live in this hell ,
I’ve lived in Pinehurst my whole life, and I can honestly say yes it can be bad but it’s not that bad, there are areas In Swindon that are much worse
@@thespectre717I’ve heard Liden and Eldene are really bad now,I grew up on Liden,I moved to Plymouth in 2006 and haven’t returned to Liden since
The street drinkers were late getting started at midday. On the South Coast where I live, they are well into it by Nine AM.
With all that green, it could be such a lovely place to live in. But as usual, it't the behaviour of the people that make it shyte.

I bet those little gaps and alleys are great for running away from the long arm of the law...

Perhaps if the Government spent the money wasted on boat people on British citizens some of these messes would not be.
