This is a question Rubbish Towns

I once went to Basildon. It was closed, I got chased by a bunch of knuckle-dragged yobs until I was lost in a maze of concrete alleyways and got food poisoning off pie. Tell us about the awful places you've visited or have your home.

Thanks to SpankyHanky for the suggestion

Aberdare
Stayed here a few times mainly in the strangely pleasant Municipal campsite! It's probably the safest place in town as it's dripping with CCTV cameras?
It was only 4 years ago that a friend of mine said he'd managed to find a B&B there that was £5 a night! I can now imagine why it was so cheap!
The first time I stayed there I drove into town(thank god I didn't walk) and the least offensive stuff resembling food was the Kebab shop. Not a food I normally frequent but I was hungry. It was only about 6.30pm so the town hadn't really got close to kicking off yet and the nice guy at the kebab shop began enquiring about why I was there, where was I staying etc. Basically he was saying..."the campsite's the safest place in town for you(being english) hurry back and don't look anyone in the eye!

The campsite was fine... but only having nylon for walls does mean you can hear the distant night-long screams, baying, brawling and police sirens quite clearly!

I can believe this.
I went there with my (Welsh but not Welsh-speaking) parents a couple of years ago, and the place is just ... misery incarnate.

It is also the only place in the world where I have seen a purple, holographically sparkly paint job on a Corsa.

Nobody in Aberdare speaks Welsh anyway.
Nobody in the majority of South Wales speaks Welsh.

Heheheh, My hometown.
I've often said that the best thing that could be done for the valleys would be to build a fucking big dam just North of Castell Coch.
And not to bother evacuating the population.

It wasn't 'Omar Simpson's' kebab shop, was it?
I went to Swansea Uni and made close friends with a group from Aberdare. They were (and still are, I saw them this weekend)a sound bunch of people. It seems that Aberdare is pretty chavvy and that there is not much else to do except take alot of drugs (judging by the habits of my mates). I have heard some pretty shocking stories about the place and it's inhabitants.
