In reply to EdH:
> Hi, just wonder if anyone local could give me some advice
This is very much a personal opinion based on my knowledge of the city. I'll try to keep it to a yes or no.
Aigburth: Yes
Aintree: Mostly yes
Allerton Yes
Anfield Yes for footy - no for living.
Broad Green Yes and no - go and have a look
Calderstones I wish
Childwall Yes
Clubmoor I'm saying naaaah - but you could have a look.
Cressington Yes
Croxteth Some lovely housing - don't let the shootings put you off. Although it is quite a way out.
Dingle No - Does the Baltic Triangle come into this? If it does, and you have a massive beard and love craft beer, then it could be a yes but is probably a no. If it does not then defo a no.
Edge Hill - could be good - probably bad.
Everton - speaks for itself - avoid.
Fairfield Don't know
Fazakerly Parts look okay - but I'd swerve it
Fullwood Park Tres bon
Garston Parts are ookay - parts will find you stabbed and bleeding to death outside a pub
Gateacre Yes
Gillmoss I wouldn't fancy it - too far out
Grassendale Yes - if I could afford it - which I never will be able to.
Hunts Cross Yes -and it is on the Northern Line
Kirkdale Never
Knotty Ash Yes - though a bit out of the way
Mossley Hill All day
Netherley Only if I was moving to Liverpool to sell smack
Norris Green See Netherley
Old Swan Nope
Orrell Park - I've got a mate who lives here who likes it but I think it is too close to Walton and Bootle.
Otterspool Lovely
Smithdown Good bits and bad bits
Speke F*cking shithole - I grew up there
St.Michael's Yes
Stanley Park Probably not
Toxteth I'm saying no, but my body, my body's telling me yer... Go and have a look around and see what you think. Tuebrook I don't know - looks shit. I got a shit tattoo there once.
Vauxhall No
Walton No
Wavertree Yes and no
West Derby EEeeeeee
Woolton Are you rich?
Greater Liverpool & Merseyside
Ainsdale Yes
Bebington Yes
Birkdale Oh, yes
Birkenhead NOOOOOOOOOOO
Bootle Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Live here for ten years - the stories I could tell you... (none of them good)
Brighton le Sands also known as Waterloo yes
Bromborough maybe
Crosby Yes - very nice
Eastham Yes
Ford No
Formby very yes
Hale Pretty
Hale Bank Pretty shit
Halewood Avoid Torry.
Heswall Yes
Hoylake Yes
Huyton A bit far out (and shit) for me
Kirkby Not unless you want all of your socks robbed
Litherland Maybe
Lydiate Yes
Maghull Yes
Moreton Maybe Netherton If you want to wander around all day wondering why the lads there don't know where the barber shop is. And why they are trying to shoot you.
New Brighton Yes
New Ferry Don't know
Newton Le Willows = Newton Le Wools
Oxton why not
Prescot No
Rainhill No
Roby - a bit far out for me
Saint Helens - they like rugby - wools
Seaforth - no
Thornton maybe
West Kirby Yes
Whiston no
Wallasey why would you bother
Waterloo yes
I've said yes to a lot of the Wirral ones because if you can afford a house there then you can afford to drive a fast car and pay the tunnel fees. Outside of that I've tried to imagine that you are on one of the main train lines. Obviously, many people would disagree with many of my choices and you would be foolish to believe anything that I have said without going and having a gander.
I hope it is of some help.
