The main industry in South Shields is shoplifting

Is Roughest areas in South Shields a nice place to live or is Roughest areas in South Shields rough?

South Shields has a housing stock that is crumbling from the outside in. Hence it is hard to understand why the town is called “affluent” by Wickipedia.
