What are the most miserable places to live in England? Every living human has the right to a decent living. If prudent management of resources and respect for human dignity is put at the fore of all government policies and programs, there won’t be anyone living in miserable places as there would be no miserable place to live. The attention here is on England that has plenty of glamorous places. Anyone that has ever been to the most miserable places to live in England will develop choler for the affluence of the best places in England. These most miserable places to live in England are essentially the most depressing places to live in England. Let’s now analyze the places other people accept or are forced to accept as their home.
10. Harrow
We want to start with Harrow, a large town in Greater London which is the main settlement of the London Borough of Harrow. It lies about 9.5 miles northwest of Charing Cross and about 5.4 miles south of Watford.
In 2012, a popular ranking by the Happy at Home Survey, Harrow was included among the gloomiest places to live. Ever since then, it has remained one of the most miserable places to live in England. Rather than improving, the town’s newspaper, The Harrow Times, recently listed it among the most depressing places to live in England. Another survey conducted among its residents places it on the bottom of the worst places to live. Similarly, the Office for National Statistics ranked it as the fourth of the most miserable places to live in the UK, considering how tough it is to survive in Harrow on an annual income of under £60,000.
9. Doncaster
The next one of the most miserable places to live in England is Doncaster, a large town in South Yorkshire. The minster town named after the River Don flowing through it is the principal settlement of the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster. The market town is also the second-largest in South Yorkshire.
People who live in Doncaster are the ones who voted it to the rank of top ten worst places to live in the UK for consecutive years. In a survey of the towns in South Yorkshire, Doncaster was ranked as the most dangerous. Among the 110 cities, towns, and villages in the area, Doncaster is among the top 20 most dangerous. In a recent year, it was voted as the overall second worst place in Britain. The overall crime rate in 2020 was 128 crimes per 1,000 people. It’s indeed one of the most depressing places to live in England and the UK.
8. Ipswich
Ipswich, a large port town and borough in Suffolk, is another one of the 10 most miserable places to live in England. Ipswich in East Anglia is a county town located 10 miles from the mouth of the River Orwell and the North Sea. It is also 67 miles away from London northeast, 45 miles southeast of Cambridge, 40 miles south of Norwich.
The crime rate in Ipswich is as bad as 100 crimes to 1000 people. Moving around the central parts of the town, where crime often occurs, you'd see that it is one of the most depressing places to live in England. Even though it has one of the fastest-growing economies in the UK thanks to the reinvention in its popular waterfront region and the introduction of the University of Suffolk, it remains relatively the most deprived area in Suffolk.
7. Burnley
Burnley, a town in Lancashire, 21 miles north of Manchester and 20 miles east of Preston, is another one of the most miserable places to live in England. The town at the confluence of the River Brun and River Calder is known for the manufacturing and aerospace industries. However, that hasn’t taken it out of the list of the most depressing towns in England.
As of 2019, over 8,829 children in Burnley were regarded as living in poverty, almost half within the town, after housing costs. Figures from Burnley are among the highest in the Northwest.

Swindon needs to be on the list. Had to stop there was a change on my train so went out a bit and i never wanted to get out of somewhere so quick. The bus station is open air and smells like a nightclub toilet, the debenhams looked more like a prison than a department store, the roads are fucked, the people are rude and it just gives depressing vibes where some people with more fingers than teeth are shouting abuse at each other across the street - this place makes Luton look posh

Harrow. First and foremost, big up the Harrow Steps crew! If you grew up in the noughties around skateboards, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. Gayton Library will never be the same again, and pound a pint night at the Junction on Tuesdays! I wouldn't say it's depressing, but excessively expensive. Biggest windfall we received is when parents capitalised on house prices and relocated. Unfortunately, we can't afford to live where we grew up anymore, so had to move to Watford, or much further afield. That being said, growing up, my memories of Harrow and Wealdstone was being able to go to Sam's chicken or Maccies without getting shot or stabbed, so you do have a point there!

I'd say Bradford, Halifax possibly Huddersfield and most of West Yorkshire as totally grim places to live. It's so depressing. In a knut shell they're all off the grid and not connected transport wise to the rest of the country. In winter the temperatures of this region are always 3 degrees less than normal and when there's one inch of snow the towns just close without any warning leaving you stranded. Beware, you'll be walking home due to no busses.

I remember a while back, Hythe, a small coastal town in Kent was voted 'the worst town in Britain' in a newspaper survey. It's an attractive and historic little resort with a nice shopping street, good recreation facilities and a nice bathing beach - a safe and pleasant place to live, much loved by residents. I suspect the vote was slanted by a bunch of schoolkids messing about. Probably best not to take these 'surveys' too seriously.

It’s a climate only a Druid could love. To be honest most of what humanity constructs is as ugly as hell from my perspective. It’s as though man has embarked on making our environment as depressing as possible. Wherever buildings fit into the landscape and have a naturalised look and aesthetic are best. Whether it’s a mountain temple or the sandstone buildings of the cotswolds, such environments are far gentler on the eye and mind. It all went wrong from the Victorian era onwards here in the UK.

I grew up in Corby and although I've moved away and wouldn't go back at this point in my life because i prefer the amenities cities have, i really don't think it's that bad of a town at all. The problem is, most of the people getting surveyed in Corby have never left Corby so they don't realise just how terrible and deprived some parts of the UK are. Corby is a great little town with a lot going for it compared to other similar sized towns. I mean, you just have to look at surrounding places like Peterborough and Wellingborough to get a real understanding of what miserable is.

Well say what you like a bout Corby, it provides most of the work in Northamptonshire, and it`s industrial range dwarves that of most cities. It had the single biggest steel works in europe at one point, provided the steel for the pipeline across the Atlantic, has a crater on mars named after it as it was the first thing mentioned on a news report by Neil armstrong from space (porridge eating world championship) it also has a castle built by william the conqueror and a 17th century pub, a nature reserve, the kings wood, a small part of rockingham forest. 4 mcdonalds, 3 tesco`s, 3 morrisons and an asda lol. several greggs ;) a direct train line to Londinium. it is surrounded by masses of shire land and has lot`s of green spaces, It is by no means miserable, it is a hard town which changes all the time. if your being a cunt, people will tell you your being a cunt. It is an industrial town, the only true industrial town in Northamtonshire, so it is different from the shoe or market towns surrounding it. It gave the world Steel whilst kettering and northampton gave northamptonshire flip flops. It has it`s own accent too called corbyite so we don`t sound like the carrot crunchers around us we speak properly which makes us appear more sophisticated. You mock Corby beacause you aint Corby. whoever did this survey has certainly never been to Corby or most of these towns, i bet they got the synopsis from the urban dictionary, which i would encourage anyone with a sense of humour to take a look at.

As someone who moved away from Harrow 20 years ago and now lives in a generally highly regarded country town, Bury St Edmunds, I have to say I found Harrow's 10th place on the most miserable list totally crazy. I found it a great place and miss it a lot, even though I see it has succumbed to the high rise craze that has swept the country in recent years. Coming to the country has been a shock to the system. Finding that there are no buses running after 6pm was the first thing; finding that many parts of Suffolk and neighbouring Norfolk don't have any bus service at all was another! Unless you can afford to have a car you are very restricted in where you can go. I suppose I had a romantic view of being able to take long walks through picturesque countryside, but the fact is that if you try to do it the chances are that the place you visit will have maybe 3 buses a day and that unless you can get back from your walk in time to catch the last one your only choice is to try to get a taxi. Yes, there are good points about the country, but day-to-day life was probably easier back in Greater London, where you could get a tube train or bus to virtually anywhere you wanted to go!

Played out with my friends, football etc. Had a good secondary school with a sixth form and came out with grades that took me to university. Had a paper round as a kid, then worked in a restaurant and a supermarket during uni. Then obtained a full time job in a company that gave me 10 years employment to managerial level and enabled me to move to Leeds. Decent football team, lovely country side, Towneley hall is great to visit, decent leisure centre, close to Manchester and Leeds and Blackpool for various leisure activities. Yes some areas arnt great like many places, but some areas very nice, like many places. I come from a working class family and worked for everything I have done with average means and intellect. In essence Burnley is nowhere near as shite as what this misguided video suggests in the grand scheme of things.
