Roughest Place In Manchester?

[mammutly]

Some of the roughest areas are not in Manchester itself, but around the suburbs. A lot of central Manchester and places nearby, like Moss side, have been the focus of a big clean up and are not as bad as they used to be.

Places like Wythenshawe, Oldham and Hyde have really rough areas now. The thing is that 'rough' these days doesn't mean the same. You used to get a lot of really hard lads in some areas - Brindleheath in Salford and Hattersley are the ones I knew well. But nowadays disaffected children have guns and are prepared to kill people, so your roughest areas are now the ones with most poverty and general social problems - like child abuse and alcoholism.

1.Longsight.
2.Levenshulme
3.Cheetham Hill and most of North Manchester is rough.

People living outside of Manchester think moss side is the worst because of the bad press from the 80s and 90s.

Some of the black lads I know, from playing football with and going into town are running about with guns in the three mentioned areas. It seems a slippery slope if you've grown up in rough, impoverished areas and missed out on your education. They are mad for the gang culture and all that, taking photos of themselves with guns and robbing houses at night.

Thanks to succesful regeneration there is no where rough in Manchester anymore.

In Salford I would say the Ordsall estate.
