I come from salisbury, it will always have a place in my heart. Peaceful, hardly anthing bad happens that at all. Left a year ago, but still visit when i can. Moved to swindon.
Salisbury is a great place to live. Crime is low, it has the odd problme, where hasn't however compared to the rest of Wiltshire towns it stands head and shoulders above them. It is extremely safe; could be worst try Trowbridge, Swindon, Calne, aweful places to live
i was born in salisbury in 1996 and im thinking of moving back there in a couple of years, i currently stay in fife scotland but prefer england much more as im always gettin made fun of because of my southern accent, is salisbury still a good place to live?
I think everyone should get a life and stop complaining! Salisbury may be a small city, but has many glorious open spaces. Maybe if some kids werent lazy they would go out and PLAY instead of having arcades or going and graffiting the place.
I used to visit Salisbury to see family about 10 years ago. Most of the time it's a great city, but from what I understand there is now a problem with drugs and people drinking in public and being a nuisance. When I used to visit, Friday and Saturday nights were bad because the soldiers from the surrounding army camps would come into town and go drinking; it would usually all kick -off and there would be trouble. Lovely looking town though, the cathedral is great....
I am thinking of moving there with my teenagers, but these comments have me confused, I was under the impression that Salisbury had low crime levels and high safety records which lets face it nowdays is the most important issue with kids in mind.
Well, keep in mind that the problems I have heard about anti-social behavior/ drink problems are pretty much in every UK city these days, but as Salisbury has high unemployment compared to other cities, there's not much for kids to do. Your teenagers might find Salisbury a bit boring if you are moving from a larger city, but don't let that put you off. It is very beautiful, with friendly people! If you need any more info, message me!
i live here and i love it! there is fun people like me about hahahah i think its a safe beautiful place compared to places like london i can walk down the road and be on a empty field and have peace not like bigger citys
it's cool cause all the buildings have like a long histroy behind them and none have been torn down =] most of the buildings have been renovated but most are still their old selfs.
Well done for making Salibury a boring place! How long did it take you to get it as boring as it is? There must be entire teams working on the project.
Like I say, don't run it down, make it better. Anyone can moan. Anyone can move to a bigger city as soon as they leave home. It takes real guts and determination to stay in a small city and make it interesting. Places get dull because people keep leaving. Salisbury is no better or worse than any other small city - go to any other small city and people will moan about it just as much. Get off your ass and make Salisbury interesting! Stop being so bloody apathetic.
I'd disagree. The fact it takes "real guts and determination" to stay in Salisbury should tell you something about the place itself. I left years ago, it takes guts and determination to try something new, the act of sitting on your ares doesn't. Salisbury, as Lilyhorizon correctly put it below, is a shithole.
Lived in Salisbury for a year and I have to agree with Kevo and lilyhorizon. It is a shithole, and staying in a dull town does not take guts or determination; on the contrary, a lack of guts and determination is what causes so many people to stay in shite towns like Salisbury.
...It's actually quite an intimidating place too. I moved to Hackney and go out in London all the time. I'd never swap the openminded attidtude of London for that of small minded Salisbury. Everyone, leave before you die!!!
Yup, it's one of those towns that has that real conservative, anti-cosmopolitan feel about it; fine if you like that type of thing, but certainly not gutsy to stay there if you don't. Funnily enough, I lived in London too (amazing place, miss it so much!), Brixton in fact (which many Salisbury friends gasped at when I told them, as if it's the ghetto of the universe) and it was sooo much nicer, and like you said, open minded!
haha i love the way you say get off your ass like it's us that need to do something about it, go ask the bloody council more like. Salisbury is a boring city, it's too medieval and old and needs refurbishing end of.
I wouldn't wait for the council to change anything, you'll be dead before things change. It is up to you, because it's your life. But if you like it there it's like to said, end of...
I live in Salisbury too, and while some aspects of it are frustrating (lack of decent nightlife and things for young people to do), it is a beautiful city with many fine old buildings, great history, and a good music and arts scene.
Big Up Salisbury! Don't run it down, make it better!
this place looks like me young arse in the morning.
