There is a common belief among Northern folk, that the south east is posh and the streets are paved with gold. When it comes to East Sussex, to a large extent that is true in districts like Wealden and Rother. However, just like most places in England it has its dumps, which should be avoided […]

Crowhurst: Why you SHOULDN’T live here
![Living in Crowhurst, East Sussex](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Crowhurst-e1491298355969.jpg)
Crowhurst is basically one big field, there is approximately 0 post offices, 0 shops, 0 restaurants, 1 s**tty pub and 0 entertainment.If you want friends, you better go somewhere else as all you’ll see are old people and sheep. Be careful of the care home, as you may see a stray pensioner wandering around at […]
Eastbourne: God is ignoring this waiting room…
![Living in Eastbourne](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/eastbourne-e1483462766805.jpg)
Eastbourne, Eastbourne…where to start? Stinky, ******, utterly without charm. No good shops, disproportionately high numbers of OAP’s and people with addiction/mental health problems. I have lived/worked here for waaay too long (about fifteen years) and am finally escaping in 2017. I work in the town centre, and sometimes feel like a fricking social worker; I […]

5 towns in the South East that are worse than Hastings
![5 towns in the South East worse than Hastings](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/219279546_9a1b729432_z-e1453123277275.jpg)
It’s easy to see why Hastings is held in such low regard by both residents and non-residents alike. All the indicators are there in the statistics to show how poor this end-of-the-line run down seaside town is, compared to the rest of the South East. It has 27.2% of its residents in private rented accommodation […]

Hastings – A run down seaside ghetto

Now where do I start, this s******e is basically ******** with *****. If you’re a teenage mother in this town, you’ll fit in just fine! If you own a Corsa and pointlessly drive it around the town, you’ll fit in just fine! During the day you may find a few wannabe *****, but after sunset […]
Hailsham and Eastbourne: Shut the door on your way out… oh, you’ve gone
![Eastbourne and Hailsham](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2005/07/eastbourne-e1548865860712.jpg)
The rise of the **** in the public’s mind (very much like the rising of bile in your throat after a bad curry) makes me laugh. ***** have been prominent in Hailsham and Eastbourne for as long as I can remember – hell, I was being beaten up in Hailsham Town Centre as long ago […]

Battle nr Hastings: Gods Waiting room
![Living in Battle, East Sussex](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2005/02/Living-in-Battle-East-Sussex-e1495126571617.jpg)
Having visited the time warp that is Battle, I have to sadly report that the main High Street seems to be devoid of any *****. A few sad skaters hang out by the skatepark near the fire station, but as for the rest of the town, it mainly comprises of Froggy Schoolkids on Day trips […]
Sidley: a dingleberry on Bexhill’s backside
![Living in Sidley, East Sussex](https://www.ilivehere.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2005/01/Ninfield_Road_Sidley_-_geograph.org_.uk_-_692678-e1453121184102.jpg)
Sidley is a dingleberry ******* off Bexhill’s backside. Just hop on the horrible bus from Eastbourne or Hastings and you’ll find yourself in Heaven. The lively town centre boasts a Co-op, two hairdressers, a Danny’s Discount Store, two pubs, a garage, and an off-licence. Oh, and a SureStart centre where inhabitants can learn how to […]
