View submission: Why is city centre such a dump?

View parent comment

I’m not in the country just the suburbs but the last few times I’ve been in the city centre it’s def different feeling to when I was a student or younger at least. That could just be me like but I’ve now read a few posts asking the same so I’m thinking there’s been a shift

Honestly I tend to hear this from people only as they get older so I genuinely do think it’s an age thing too. The amount of doom and gloom I hear about the city being terrible and completely dead now from people then you go in for an evening/night out and it’s buzzing every time. Carting the kids around during the day will never have the same feeling heading round town for a night with a few friends did and that seems to be their core issue.
