Hounslow is ok. it aint a bad place compared to many other parts of london eg. Hackney, Peckham, Brixton, Barking, Haringey, Newham and so on.. You hardly hear about in on the news
that's bollocks ! I am French and I lived in Hounslow next to the Hight street during almost a year and never had any troubles even when I came back from work around 2 am. This video, at the end, shows us people who died in Hounslow. but people died in every city in every country around the world. I am sure it s not the best place to live in england, but it's not the worst. We have in France some pretty bad cities really really really worst than Hounslow (which is Disney Land compare to ours).
I first went to Hounslow with a friend's mother to shop in a very untidy little place that was known to be cheap and good for bulk buying food stuffs. The very first Tesco!
That was in 1965......... I went back in 72 to buy a nice coat........... But now the place in loaded with spitters and people who don't care where they throw rubbish who like to destroy what once was a nice little place to explore. Hate it now!
ya i fel so too, because when i return from the gym on the high street i see lot of rubbish flowing with the wind. U see it clearly when in evening the high street is empty.

@genie121 Highway robbery was the thing. Obviously people travelling on routes close to London were vunerable in such a wide open place. I suppose London was still the rich centre of the country so it made sense for the Highwaymen to operate close to where their 'customers' were.
well as an ex old heston resident it just fills me with deep deep sorrow as to what has become of a lovely fantastic area to live and grow up in. it is just a sad concrete disgusting characterless craphole now full of foreigners. well done all you politicians.
all i have to say about this town now is its the most shittest place in london with the most unfriendliest people too. the young youths all tryin to be wannabe gangstas thinkin there in america. what a load of crap hounslow is now. im movin to coney island brooklyn newyork usa. coney island is 1 million times better than fuckin sad hounslow.
I lived in hounslow until about 3 years ago. We left because it was becoming bedsit land, the sumb idiots at the council tore down the trees of the station we lived next to, causing to noise to be amplified rather than muffled. Also it was becoming a really ugly place with odd people around...suspicious people...
how come the burger kings in hounslow high street and bath road have closed down? lol. the one in feltham cineworld carpark is the only one left in the borough. lol. burger king is too epensive in uk anyway. its cheap in america and canada and u get your values worth for what u paid.
can any tell me if there is or was a pub called the duke of wellington or similar name i can remember a park (swings and slide) by a petrol station.. this is going back to 1992 93 really would love to hear off any1 who might know the park was by some flats maybe.. i worked there 4 a while and am trying my hardest to remember
Hello the duke of wellington is still there. the park was opposite the pub they were in staines road. the pub is on corner of staines road and wellington road north
thank you so much for that info,i had a wonderful time there and an experience that absolutely changed my life on that park you mentioned,thank you very much

Hounslow has become a microcosm of London, taken over by Third World invaders. Now they have control of the Council the mosques are springing up.
