Scottish locals have pulled no punches when reviewing their hometowns
Scottish residents have shared 10 of the 'worst' places to live in the country in their own words and they haven't pulled any punches.
Inchinnan, Renfrewshire Inchinnan is a small village in Renfrewshire, approximately 25 minutes from Glasgow with a population of around 2,000. The reviewer also took issue with the village's residents, adding: "Full of men gossiping like sweetie wives about everyone behind their backs. The best thing about the gossips is that their own lives are a car crash."
"One trick when stuck behind them in a car is to learn a little Gaelic, such as ‘Tha thu gu math’ and see them run." "Most places are sectioned off for venues for unfunny Oxbridge student comedians to try and 'make it', and also overpriced beer stands. The beautiful architecture is adorned with posters for s**t 'comedy', and you can’t move without being shoved out of the way by someone."
However, that didn't stop one frustrated local from complaining about the town's "ne’er-do-wells" and "famous grey concrete skyline". The anonymous reviewer stated that they would soon be leaving the town "by the grace of all that is holy" and were very candid in their comments. Taking to ilivehere.co.uk, however, one unhappy local was quick to complain about the town's "reckless drivers" and high amount of littering. Regarding the latter, they wrote: "The residents enjoy throwing trash on the ground, usually McDonalds or chocolate bar wrappers. Walk around one of the parks, and you will witness school kids throwing trash into the bushes."
The writer summarised: "A quick Google search to Wikipedia will tell you that 'Elgin is a town and Royal Burgh in Moray, Scotland. It is the administrative and commercial centre for Moray'. It will not tell you of the unimaginable bleakness that absorbs the so-called city." Wishaw, North Lanarkshire Wishaw is a large town situated on the edge of the Clyde Valley, approximately 15 miles south-east of the centre of Glasgow. Among its highlights are a golf club, Belhaven Park, and its busy town centre that includes a number of small independent retailers.
