I watch this and although it may not be attractive to other viewers, it makes me happy because it reminds me of a time growing up where Edinburgh was simply Edinburgh...it was home. Now, most of these buildings are gone, and so are the people that lived in them. Pushed further out the city whilst the land their former homes stood on continues to be bought by filthy rich property development companies - in cahoots with the local council etc - who build "luxury apartments" that more than likely lie empty half the year when they're not let out through air b&b for 1k a week, or development after development of "student accommodation" with a Sainsbury's local and a Costa coffee occupying the ground floor units. Horrific
But why would tourists want to see deprivation, neds and junkies lurking about. Those are people who ruin a cities reputation they are also the people that can fuck right off.
Most people think of Edinburgh as the Castle and Princess Street. Sadly, our capital city has deep pockets of deprivation and poverty. The media refuses to highlight it and instead focus on Glasgow’s issues. It’s sad. We need to look after all our poor citizens in Scotland 🏴
Had some of the best times of my life living in and arround Edinburgh.PLaces like Pilton,Muirhouse,Westerhailes,Niddrie,Bingham.Some of the finest people I know lived in these areas.I loved it their great to see these pics cheers mate.Now living in a wee village in Germany not bad for a lad that grew up in some of the worst places but also they were the best the real life how we normal everyday follk lived back then.

Great wee vid. Brings back many memories, especially the last few shots of the high flats in Wester hailed & sighthill. Growing up in Dumbryden, one of the seven estates that make up Westerhailes was great. Tough areas, a lot of poverty but as a kid it was brilliant. There were so many kids, you were never short of someone to play footie with in the carpark.
7 estates that make up Wester hailes? Av never heard that in ma puff, what are yi classin them as mate? Dumbryden, Murrayburn, Walkers, Westburn, Barnpark, Calder n Clovie??
Weird to say but its these places that make me love Edinburgh. It's a beautiful city but hate when outsiders assume its a tranquil place where nothing happens and that we're all 'snobs', Edinburgh wouldn't be the same without its Muirhouses, Piltons, Niddries etc. Although there nowhere near as bad as they used to be
Thats true mate, its strange how some of the areas blend in. You can be walking down a street full of run down council blocks, turn round the corner and you're in a well maintained street with nice bungalows and cottages and lovely looking gardens.
I know anyone that's successful is a snob. I think that attitude of hatred of people who do well or the hatred of people because they have successful parents and through no fault of their own are brought up in say morningside and are therefore instantly snobs, ken, is just another form of prejudice and that hopefully in time moronic attitudes like that will die out. Scotland should not be ashamed of having successful people or a middle class. If the comments were being made by an asshole who happened to come from Barnton Avenue West about how they hated outsiders thinking that Edinburgh was full of schemies and crime and drug abuse and that everyone is a Ned that person would be thought of as a dickhead and rightly so. My father recently had major heart surgery and the two surgeons were clearly middle class and probably the result of private education. If this is what the middle class give us I'm not critical. I went to a council school and had I wanted I could of been a surgeon too had I worked instead of trying to fit in with assholes so that I would not be perceived as a swot. Working class kids can be the victim of this prejudice to through peer pressure to fit in.

@@ivanarchivaldoguzman8783great comment m8. Can you tell me some more places like this in Edinburgh please thank you , only know of west side plaza muirhouse broomhouse
I lived in BROOMHOUSE Broomhouse crescent, 30 odd years ago, right at the top in a bungalow just before the underpass that took you to the shops at Sighthill, i drove down Broomhouse Crescent last time i was in Edinburgh, not been there in over 20 years, and the playing field for the old primary school is a housing Estate 😮 How things change 😢
I was born in old west granton and brought up in muirhouse - loved it there, place used have such an amazing atmosphere walking about it. They 'neds' who hassled the film crew at muirhouse shopping centre were within their rights to tell them to stop filming. They were making out as if they kids playing football were involved in the drug dealing that was going on. Plus that's their life, they didn't ask to be filmed living it - this isn't 'the scheme'
I was born in the 90's in Muirhouse and going back there for the first time in years a short while ago I seen how run down the area look now compared to what I remember as a child - back then it seemed a much nicer place than now...
Yeah i also grew up in muirhouse in the 90s, all the flats are gone for front door houses the schools have all been redeveloped and one rebuilt completely, to say its run down no.. run down is what it was the only original things still there from the 90s sre the likes of martelo court etc
Usually find the people that live in the run down areas are some of the nicest people you'll meet. Apart from the ones that'll stab you. Aside from that aye.
Yeah, they're really friendly, well adjusted people with zero aggression. Glaswegians also love telling anybody who'll listen how friendly they are, whilst holding a knife in their hands.
@Kiltskills never said everyone. There's bad in everyone. Prety sure even God had his flaws. Everyone has a capacity for killing someone, some people just don't act on it.
My childhood right there, each and every scheme from lochend to wester hailes were my stomping grounds and took many a chase through the mazes in muirhouse and pilton from drylaws finest..
1.24 to 1.30 Fala Court and Soutra Court on right in Gracemount. I was brought up in Garvald Court further to left but not in picture. Lived there as 1 year old in 1960 until a move further up Gracemount Drive in 1973. Good times.

Hi. Thanks for the video. I was wondering if someone could help me. I've seen an area of Edinburgh a couple of times on documentaries about drug abuse and wondered what it's called. Its a little parade of shops but its totally undercover with doors at each end. Most of the shops look closed. Loadsa Neds started giving the film crew trouble there in one film. Any help much appreciated. Thanks
Muirhouse I'd say,heroin and AIDS capital of Europe in the 80s,the parade of shops is probably the Muirhouse shopping centre as it had doors at each end
Reminds me when I lived in Sighthill in 1993. A lot of suburbs in the south west area of Edinburgh going out towards Herriot Watt Uni and Napier. Not bad places at all
The auld launderette doon auld niddrie brings back memories that , I used to live doon the fort in leith years ago then moved up ti granton ,Some mad times up pilton /granton .... YPD
Funny, I grew up in Embra, in several of these neighbourhoods. I don't miss it, but I like to see this coz it reminds me how I've progressed in life. I could still be stuck in a crappy wee flat in Moredun. No offence to anyone who is....
The class divide in Edinburgh is by far the worse I have ever seen. It is disgusting that in 2023, your actual postcode determines your overall quality of life and life expectancy.
My Sist in Law away back in 1981 old me and the family who are living Queensland by then originally From Bingham told us to bring summer clothes for Nanaimo, should have been Welles, umbrellas and raincoats ,gee it rains just as much in SCotland there , we still enjoyed our holiday there .Duncan.
My family moved into Craigentinny in 1950 it was thought to be one of the better council estates in those days We moved out in 1962 and moved to Lochend Happy Days.😂
I am surprised they didnt route the tram to go through all thewe gorgeous places. Tourists only get to see a bit of Sighthill and the affluent Broomhouse area when they arrive.

where are the slums? the niddrie images showed house's ready for demolition you can't call some place a slum if nobody lives there. the high rise homes looked ok
Update: I was homeless for a bit and was offered a place with my pal in Wester Hailes. Not gonna say where exactly. Day 2: you know the buzzers at the entry in flats? Well someone slapped some poo on 'em. This is going to be fun...fml. I hope I don't get started on. Wish me luck.

What are you talking about..."being pushed further out of the city" ? All these places are nowhere near the city centre.

Glasgow has always been worse but Edinburgh still had some issues
We should ring fence our local taxes and use them here in Edinburgh rather than prop up Glasgow.
But doesn't tourism help raise the profile of Edinburgh and the country? 😢

They’re slowly demolishing all these old buildings. Anyone who was living in Edinburgh before 2013 knows it was a different world
It sure was lad
Great video, some lovely people came out of these high rise flats and estates and some ''bad eggs'' LOVE IT.
