The worst places to live in County Durham
Ferryhill, a once thriving mining village had (at some point in its history) the longest recorded railway platform in the world! Sadly these days the trains speed up as they pass through… presumably commuters experience something akin to Jurassic Park as they pass by. Only with wasted yokels taking the place of velociraptors. Those few […]

Darlington. Beautiful Darlington. Traditional market town that is the embodiment of North Eastern values. When I was growing up there, expectant mothers did not get the usual NHS offering of a ‘baby starter pack of nappies, wet wipes and a helpful booklet’. No; babies of Darlington Memorial Hospital were prepared for life as a future […]
Ferryhill is a small, former pit village in South West Durham with a population of around ten thousand. A typical terraced house can be purchased for about the same price as the weekly shop in any town in the Home Counties. Unfortunately they’re still overpriced due to the high concentration of pond life who reside […]

Never make the same mistake as I did. Moving to this old mining town solely because of the housing crisis in London, has cost me my sanity. The housing is very poor, and for sure I have seen better squats around the UK. The houses that are not boarded up are smashed, and the ones […]

Ferryhill is full of jobless drugged up muppets, who like nothing better than getting stoned, high, drunk or all three and fighting because they’ve got nothing else better to do. Ferryhill is full of fast food places and also has a GREGGS. Parents pick their kids up from school at 3:15pm still in their pyjamas. […]

Ferryhill grew during the coal mining years, around the turn of the 20th century. Situated south west of Durham, it is surrounded by other sh*tholes, such as Chilton, Spennymoor, Bishop Auckland, and Kirk Merrington. The housing reflects most of the people that live there; with most of the houses in this little patch of **** […]
Lived in Blackhall Colliery for a while now and I honestly wish I had never set foot in the place,cannot wait to get out this really is the pits here, but of course there is now no pit here now. Blackhall Colliery, Easington, Horden and other villages in this area are all down at heel, […]

Darlington is truly a mixed bag. It consists of the best and the worst, and by the worst, I mean you’ll feel like you’re in Mogadishu or Baghdad. Unlike other nearby towns, such as Middlesbrough, Hartlepool or Stockton which are all universally **** throughout, Darlington consists of several okay areas in which you’ll find old […]
I would say Stanley is populated with ***** like every other article on here, but it’s not. It’s not populated with anyone really, unless you count the odd dead sheep and knackered three hundred year old terraced houses. There are tales of a better time, before the council made the decision to demolish the entire […]

Ushaw Moor used to be a nice place… When the youthful generation were under the age of 10. But now, they are at the age of about 15/16, and they are RUTHLESS!! They love to fight and will do so if you even look at them wrong. If you want to have a nice time with […]
If you live in Brandon, you will know that it is truly ****! At the terminal, is where you will be the most popular you have ever been. If you are over the age of 18 you will definitely be asked to go into the shop for someone, for a bottle of Frosty Jacks, or […]

Sacriston known by ‘Segga’ by locals or ‘Smakriston’ is one of the worst places in the county. As mentioned in many other articles within the area Sacriston is also full of *****. Sacriston is home to far too many takeaways and as you go down the front street it’s all you can see, scruffy takeaways […]
