Nobody mentioned Luton yet?
Maybe I didn't read enough posts, but I'm amazed that EVERY post isn't about Luton...
I lived in or around Luton for way too long; let me list its delights...
I got burgled a lot (and the local police were too busy to even come around the last few times)
A local, with a criminal history including murder, beat the living shit out of me for no real reason (and the local police were too busy...)
I had almost every vehicle I owned (and even one owned by my dad and one owned by a mate) stolen or vandalised (and the local police were too busy...)
I worked as a paramedic in the town and while I was resuscitating a patient some worthless wanker stole the guys wallet from the jacket we'd removed (to be fair the local police did at least record that one).
The reason that the police were too busy could be that Luton is populated by the chaviest scum I have ever had the misfortune to meet.
One of the streets (which won the accolade of Britains worst street a few years ago) was called Hookers Way and I think it referred to Lutons most upstanding citizens frankly.
The most decent people I met were mostly immigrants and the locals treated them apallingly. (I still don't understand how pikey fuktards actually think themselves better than law abiding folk that actually don't rob their own community or spend their time off their faces on glue, smack, crack, meth, meths or Charles Wells apalling brews.
The place is so bad even Worthingtons stopped brewing there!
Fanny Craddock used to live there for fucks sake, how bad does it have to be?

Length? The longest 9 years of my life...

Luton has featured plenty
Your reasons just add to the pile of shite that it is.

But it is our pile of shite, and it is better than Watford.

watford is shit.
even the shopping centre looks like it's given up from the outside

yeah luton is a shithole.
but Hookers Way is based on the amount of thevery which went on there before the streets were named (the only bit i remember of local history guff as my surname is hooker)

luton is a shitehole. the only place i've seen (so far) which places traffic calming measures to one of the buisiest roads into the town.

i mean what muppet would reduce the size of the road so nothing can get through if there is an accident or a bus stops. everything stops. (bury park was bad to travel through originally, but now even the cyclists avoid it at all costs)

i must admit there trying to make it look better by doing up the shopping centre, train station and public areas.
But, sadly. All this will do is bring more scum from neigbouring towns to pilfer. making the town look worse. if only it would stop. (ship em to st albans. there posh)

Still. Can't be as bad as Dunstable. (the only town to listen to it's community via facebook)

*born an bred round luton and dunstable.

Fair play, Luton is indeed a shitpit
I registered just to post about how bad Luton is and then realised that it would be a week before I could post. Any and all words fail me when attempting to describe the loathing I have for the place. It is truly a miserable and charmless town, devoid of any appreciable merit.

Born, Bread and Buggered off from........
Luton. I spent the best part of a shitty 21 years in that fucking dive and, allegedly, I was from one of the better areas. Mindless beatings, murder, drugs and the worst of the lot PIKEYS. This place is a breeding ground for these illiterate, spesh drinking, racist, sub normal genetic fuck up's. When I graduated from uni and begrudgingly came back, jobs were scarce and my pockets were empty. Off to job centre I trundled with my freshly printed first class honours degree expecting some help. MISTAKE
I was greeted with a polite 'fuck off, you don't three kids hanging off each tit and where is your drug addiction?'
It was time to leave and that was that, seven years on and I sometimes visit for shits and giggles just to see what I'm missing out on.

Ahhhh Luton
I did a part time degree at the laughably labelled University of Luton.

One winters night I was walking from the Uni to the train station, muttering to myself about the shithole town when I notice a pile of vomit on the pavement. This being Luton it was topped with a rat wolfing down as much puke as it little whiskered mouth could hold. The little fucker didn’t even run off as I walked past, just briefly glanced at me.

That image always summed up the place for me.

hold on
nobody has mentioned the marsh farm riots.

when we lived between two places, marsh farm and kensworth. (as in waiting for the lease to end on marsh farm)
shortly after the riots, sat looking out the window waiting dad to turn up in the truck.
i see one bloke walk up to another bloke and proceed to blow the other blokes face off!

lovely place (and no kensworth is not imbred)
