Gorton is a happy place.

Gorton has the lowest prescription rate for anti-depressants in the Manchester area, one of only three places in the region happier than the national average.

Any Gorton people care to tell us why its such an upbeat sort of place?

My Grandma's buried in Gorton. She tells me it's generally a quiet place!

Is that stat skewed because of how many people who are acquiring drugs through other less legal means perhaps...

Was always happy after 8 pints of bitter in the Royal Oak on a Saturday night when visiting the Gorton Blues :)

I used to work in Gorton back in the early 80s
Some scally had painted on a disused wall "WELCOME TO SUNNY GORTON" in six foot letters, it always made me smile
