I'm Bradford born and raised and this is the most honest account of the city I've ever seen, BBC interviewed me and loads of other people on the street a few years ago but just edited everything to fit their narrative, haven't trusted them since. But this is just Bradford in a nutshell, Excellently done
I would, rather live my life in Bradford, than live where I live, in a stuck up town down south, where nobody ever talks to you. All alon , going round the bend with loneliness and isolation. Give me Bradford anyday. I would like to emigrate straight away. These southerners are stuck up. And, I am a southerner, myself
I come from Bristol. A bloody rough and vile place. I am going to Bradford soon for a good curry. Shame, about the homeless. Where are the social workers to help them
fun fact, you'll rarely find a russian guy who's actually from Russia, most of the time they come from the Baltics which are not even Slavic countries, they are the chavs of our beautifulcountries that run off to UK cuz they got no life here
Things I don't like: The in-your-face soul crushing poverty visible on almost every street. The pound shops. The pawn shops. The fly-tipping. The littering. The nitrous oxide cannisters. The nightly fireworks going off. Small dicked guys revving their sports cars and doing doughnuts at 1am. The reckless driving. The nightlife is nothing like it used to be. The boarded up buildings. The derelict buildings. The shut-down pubs. The bulldozed pubs. Shitty ugly new building developments, especially in the city centre. The actually really average restaurants and lack of food diversity. Bradford is a city that has been ravaged by terminal economic decline, incompetent and corrupt councils making bad choices and wasting money for *decades*, maybe even the whole of the last century. It's poor, it's shit (like our football team). The people who claim it's a nice place are delusional. The attitude that "things are fine" when they're not is partly what's stopping Bradford ever actually improving. It's a dump and it needs fixing for everyone's sanity and well-being.
I agree. Left the country years ago but I'm from Barnsley and my mum worked in Bradford. Lots of nice people but Barnsley too, has been left to rot. Drugs, crime, intimidating streets at night and the erosion and dereliction of a town/city centre makes a s****hole. City of culture; what tripe
I agree w everything but idc ab nightlife but i dont know about pawn shops there isnt many and theres nothing wrong with em and the asian shops can be good like saveco
I am from Bradford and look it's not exactly Paradise but it's not where near as bad as people think. You won't get robbed and stabbed as soon as you walk out of the door, it has great places to eat, some great history and focal points.
@@Mark70609 that isn't anything even remotely related to what I said. But no, there is no amalgamation. There is segregation. That's not the same thing.
Bradford was a great city back in the 80’s I walked through it recently it’s a haven for class a importation and distribution without such trade Bradford as a city would be bankrupt only recently the Nat west in Bradford was fined for accepting bin liners of cash to launder
I'm from Liverpool. In the early to the mid 80's the main players used to go to Bradford to pick up quantity of H. 3 or more kgs at a time. Its still one of the main connections. Them and the Turks/Kurds in North London
@@jazztheglass6139I know bout the Turks. Used to live in Tottenham. Green Lanes was run by the Turks. Probably still is haven't been to the UK in a while.
One more really dumb thing in Bradford. Who the hell decided really smooth paving slabs would be a good idea in the city centre? A bit of rain, and I'm slipping all over the place.
I left this dump 29 years ago, and it's the single best decision I've ever made. It's a depressing dump, and the people praising the place have likely never been anywhere else for longer than a vacation. Honestly, it's that bad.
There's loads of them round Centenary during the day, often throwing up on themselves, sometimes even into the tinnie they're drinking from before carrying on necking it. You see stuff like that every day and start losing sympathy tbh. There's so many stains all over the paths from drunks who can't be bothered to take care of themselves. And when they're not loitering and day drinking in public places, often around children, they're begging for money to go buy drugs or more drink. There are more dealers in VW Golfs with no licence or insurance than there are rats, and there's a lot of rats. Big problem with toothless prostitutes too, often pimped by the same dealers. People pass out on street corners because they're off their faces and everyone just tries to avoid them, there are homeless people sleeping in almost every doorway, usually in someone else's sick or urine. Bradford is a hole. I'm sure there are plenty of other holes out there too, but Bradford is definitely one of them.
Went into Bradford once to see a mate,couldn't get out quickly enough. Honestly, you'd truly believe your in a foreign country. I wouldn't go back with a regiment of soldiers and a covered wagon. Diversity, you can keep it !!!

I've always wanted to visit and hopefully will. Cheers for this. Used to live in the east end of London and loved it. Always wondered if Bradford had better curries?? Ive heard they actually do!
Also bradford central library was falsely taken away,myself and other families and children use to go to library in town on Saturday have a meet up look at books ,then if you were hungry go to second floor there was a cafe ,I use to use all the floors in the library from ground to 6th floor.this was taken away from the public by poor council management,.
I’m from Birmingham and I can happily say that this is true.The more up north you go the more friendly they are.Not like Birmingham or down south where everyone is cold and distant
Its in the countries top ten ratings for all the wrong reasons and in the countries bottom ten for good reasons. Its a dangerous, filthy and crime ridden place to live and it will only get worst as the cancer that lives in the centre of Bradford moves to the outer parts of the city
Ive lived here most of my 50 odd years and completely agree with you. As a city it had very little going for it, now just a dumping ground for waifs and strays. Decent on the outskirts but the city centre is just one big shit hole.
The main roads out of Bradford are awash with flytipping & so are our 2 railway lines........ if we had a canal & river they would be the same as well.
@@BadAppleBluesclearly your not actually from Bradford mate we have a canal that runs all the way from London to Liverpool centred smack bang in the middle Bradford what do u mean if we had believe me we do

I have lived in Bradford nearly 60 years now and I have never seen this canal you claim is here, can you give me directions to tell me how to see this canal? Back to my main point - the roads and railway lines leading into Bradford ARE litter strewn sh!tholes - or am I lying about that too?
I lived Bradford for a few years 25 years ago and my cars constantly got broken into. The people are brilliant and the curries were always good but you turn down the wrong street and you will get trouble wether you want it of not and yet, on a Friday night I never saw any trouble.
Despite countries typically having a distinct culture relating to the country as a whole, Bradford itself has developed a unique subculture within England

Big up the massive up in Bradford, but London is Englands most dangerous & crime ridden city. Policing in London is very tight so allot of the crime happens underground & doesn't get reported or noted. Westminster, Camden & Islington are inner city crime jungles. I grew up around all of them and the amount of stuff I have seen is ridiculous.
Have to agree, like you i was raised tottenham hackney islington, tufnell park,camden, and also lived in leeds for 20 years, bradford dont come close to london for crime or danger.
Lovely place Bradford, I moved up from London for a job in Hull and didn't like Hull at all everyone was depressed and unnecessarily rude and aggressive so I took a weekend trip out to Bradford and spent the weekend eating great food from all over the world and when I went back to London after leaving Hull I actually considered moving to Bradford full time when I got a fully online job but eventually I just moved to a beach town in Brazil because of the low cost of living and spending pounds in Brazil let's you live like a king compared to Bradford or London lol but if I ever do move back to England I'll probably rent myself a little flat in Bradford
Interesting comment. I’ll probably move there for uni and have been hearing so many negative comments about the city that it has really been demotivating me. Glad at least someone liked it. By the way, Brazil sounds amazing, lovely place. Good luck there 😄
I have worked in bradford for 30 years and have experienced how the town planners have destroyed the industrial heritage of this city. You should see what they have done to the city centre. It's now a complete waste land .
To be honest it may have some nice places to eat... But it's a dump..... No jobs... People think they own the streets....Junkies. Beggers people fighting with themselves ... Pickpockets... You name it and anything bad you can think of is in Bradford... Sorry but that is my opinion.... Thank you and good bye
There's a huge wealth divide too, homestead estate in Ilkley where I live is one of the most affluent parts of Bradford, where the average house price is around 920k, mainly filled with athletes or rich white men and their families, with next to 0 crime, contrasting to central Bradford where it's the most multicultural place in the world, but unfortunately has a lot of crime and substance abuse. Although it's a beautiful city with a rich history, Bradford definitely has it's many downsides.
I'm originally from Bradford but moved out 20 years ago because it was a shit hole. I still have family on the outskirts and have to drive through the city and it's a bigger shit hole than it was before I left!
remember that these are just opinions of each persons experience, go to the richer ends an you won’t hear people say things like we see drunks an druggies rolling around on the floor
My goodness! Even the animals in Serengeti banish their males instinctively, so there’s no inbreeding! It says a lot for society that had less sense than wild animals! But we have ALWAYS known that! Only THEY don’t! Says everything you need to know about kids whose only career is going to be taxi drivers, chicken fast food restaurant servers , or groomers!
that's really funny considering our asian kids 61.5% get grade 5 or higher in their gases compared to 47.9% of your kids so our kids actually do better in school and are less likely to be taxi drivers or fast food servers and the 2020 report published by the centre of expertise on child sexual abuse found that 89% of convicted groomers were white whilst 6% were asian not only that but your own royal family is inbred. Gives you something to think about you racist little women the statistics are not in your favour are they
The glorious old buildings in the centre, from the period of the cotton and wool trade, don't really go together with the people of Bradford today. I was stunned to see my first white taxi driver just recently.
I was born in Bradford in 1955 and moved away 7 years ago, i think it was the changes they made in the town look ugly by pulling all the old archetectural buildings down that made it what it was, there's too many blots on the landscape now that dont fit in and look odd.. Although i must admit i still do feel proud and have some good memories of the past 😀
Bradford born and bred, its a crazy place. Nowhere in the UK is like it, its an entire culture of its own but we deffo have the best food thats for sure.
Love to live in Bradford I am living in bradford since 1992 multicultural community multicultural faith multicultural variety in everything best food and restaurant in bradford People from all world in Bradford only need to improve in local leadership

it's one of Britains crime hotpots mate, and there's no denying it. Ive lived here most of my life, and there's things about it thst love dearly, but there's no getting away from the fact its one of the uks most expensive cities to insure your car, and one year recently, manningham, girlingron and west bowling were 3 of the top 5 most expensive post codes in the entire nation to Insure a car. it's also one of the most burgled cities in Britain, one of the most violent, with one of the highest percentage of drug addicts and alcoholics in Britain. We have a good side, but our dark side is huge.
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirse defo agree I live in manningham, well the nice part lol but any insurance in bradford is sky high because of all the scrotes who have never worked a day in their lives world rather steal than be a meaningful member of the city.

I'm Bradford born and bred. Thank god I managed to escape..........look at some footage from 40 years ago. It was a great city once......now it's a tragedy! City of Culture.....do me a favour!
Bradford is alright, people are cool. Good food. Everyones doing their own thing unless you're intentionally looking for trouble. Northern towns are blessed. The real shitholes you'll find in inner city Birmingham and London.
I used to go to Bradford once a year- it has a very good pantomime. Saltaire is also lovely, not that far out of the centre. Other than that, it’s a shit show I’m afraid.
Nice people in Bradford, food is amazing, used to love it when I used to go out on the pull back in the days, but over everything I gotta say, people are really nice and friendly. Anyone that goes to Bradford will feel that belonging vibe. Brummies won’t even offer a Hi, hello let alone offer guests tea. Brummies will take guest to restaurant and expect the guest to pay. I lived in Birmingham and Bradford, two cities full of Pakistanis, but Bradford is Bradford, it’s the people that make Bradford, it’s not another toilet like other places. I wish I was born and bred in Bradford.
I lived here 23 years believe me 93 percent of the population on benefits that is so true I can’t stress enough how difficult it won’t even consider hiring someone even with the right credentials

The best thing about Bradford is the diversity 😂😂ffs blind clowns. Best city for culture 😂😂we have fallen so far it’s sad.
UK city of culture 2025-2029 get in there son shine
@@wazirakbarkhan.wardag..it really ain't and I'm Asian hahaha. Ain't diverse for shi*
Diversity is nonsense, it’s just a code word for a 💩 hole, everyone knows Bradford, Luton and Birmingham are toilets 🤣
It's a dump, run down now sad really as there used to be some lovely buildings etc.
Same as blackburn etc😢
@@samg1667i wonder why its rundown?🤔
Oudda deh four places I know bradfed, lahore, ismlamad and karachi, this the best! A cussmeh bro!
Where are the woman? Tucked away...
i would rather live in Afghanistan with the taliban than live in bradford

No you wouldn’t
Probably become Muslim like majority of their captives
After their treatment and hospitality they see and receive
RELIGION IS A MENTAL ILLNESS @@wazirakbarkhan.wardag..
better than the WhiteHouse
Great wide range of comments. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely place Bradford, I moved up from London for a job in Hull and didn't like Hull at all everyone was depressed and unnecessarily rude and aggressive so I took a weekend trip out to Bradford and spent the weekend eating great food from all over the world and when I went back to London after leaving Hull I actually considered moving to Bradford full time when I got a fully online job but eventually I just moved to a beach town in Brazil because of the low cost of living and spending pounds in Brazil let's you live like a king compared to Bradford or London lol but if I ever do move back to England I'll probably rent myself a little flat in Bradford
Interesting comment. I’ll probably move there for uni and have been hearing so many negative comments about the city that it has really been demotivating me. Glad at least someone liked it. By the way, Brazil sounds amazing, lovely place. Good luck there 😄
Bit of advice from someone who’s lived here 23 years Yh don’t do that it really is not a nice place at all
I have worked in bradford for 30 years and have experienced how the town planners have destroyed the industrial heritage of this city. You should see what they have done to the city centre. It's now a complete waste land .
Brah Brah Brah send em to Rwanda hahaha 🥷🏿🇬🇧
To be honest it may have some nice places to eat... But it's a dump..... No jobs... People think they own the streets....Junkies. Beggers people fighting with themselves ... Pickpockets... You name it and anything bad you can think of is in Bradford... Sorry but that is my opinion.... Thank you and good bye
My mate lives there he says it's shite no go area's but they don't tell you that
your mates racist theres not no go areas he's just scared of non white ppl 😭
"no disrespect to your colour" oh my god, i love england man people are honest fucking hell. At least ik you don't fuck with me.
Every older football fan around the world knows Bradford for the 11th May 1985.
Tragic time
There's a huge wealth divide too, homestead estate in Ilkley where I live is one of the most affluent parts of Bradford, where the average house price is around 920k, mainly filled with athletes or rich white men and their families, with next to 0 crime, contrasting to central Bradford where it's the most multicultural place in the world, but unfortunately has a lot of crime and substance abuse. Although it's a beautiful city with a rich history, Bradford definitely has it's many downsides.
Although Ilkley has a Bradford post code, the town is run by Leeds City Council, not Bradford, that's probably why is is run so efficiently.
I'm originally from Bradford but moved out 20 years ago because it was a shit hole. I still have family on the outskirts and have to drive through the city and it's a bigger shit hole than it was before I left!
Hi can you answer Who made it a shithole any names? I m super curious as I m debating with someone.
@@Sami-im5vj non white immigrants it isn't hard
remember that these are just opinions of each persons experience, go to the richer ends an you won’t hear people say things like we see drunks an druggies rolling around on the floor
My goodness! Even the animals in Serengeti banish their males instinctively, so there’s no inbreeding! It says a lot for society that had less sense than wild animals! But we have ALWAYS known that! Only THEY don’t! Says everything you need to know about kids whose only career is going to be taxi drivers, chicken fast food restaurant servers , or groomers!
that's really funny considering our asian kids 61.5% get grade 5 or higher in their gases compared to 47.9% of your kids so our kids actually do better in school and are less likely to be taxi drivers or fast food servers and the 2020 report published by the centre of expertise on child sexual abuse found that 89% of convicted groomers were white whilst 6% were asian not only that but your own royal family is inbred. Gives you something to think about you racist little women the statistics are not in your favour are they
The glorious old buildings in the centre, from the period of the cotton and wool trade, don't really go together with the people of Bradford today. I was stunned to see my first white taxi driver just recently.
They’re saying the curries in Bradford are the best! …..curry houses on every street corner!…next to the mosque for easy reference!
I was born in Bradford in 1955 and moved away 7 years ago, i think it was the changes they made in the town look ugly by pulling all the old archetectural buildings down that made it what it was, there's too many blots on the landscape now that dont fit in and look odd.. Although i must admit i still do feel proud and have some good memories of the past 😀
Is anyone actually English in these places any more
?
they literally spoke to multiple white ppl in this video Bradford is over 60% white you're off it
born in Bradford, was a great city 50 years ago, would never dream of going back now, its unrecognisable as a Yorkshire city
3:51 absolutely spot on
Bradford born and bred, its a crazy place. Nowhere in the UK is like it, its an entire culture of its own but we deffo have the best food thats for sure.
@MUSIC4TRUTH.... Yup
@MUSIC4TRUTH.... no
Love to live in Bradford I am living in bradford since 1992 multicultural community multicultural faith multicultural variety in everything best food and restaurant in bradford
People from all world in Bradford only need to improve in local leadership
Funny how there's a smack head chilling behind chip
You should do more of these,diverse english culture,It´s really interesting as foreigner,have a good day :)
Thanks, i do have some more planned👍🏽
Diverse or English? How both?
@@wolfie498they were born here grew up here went to English schools and speak English they just have a different culture background/home life I assume u know nothing about Bradford or the non white community here past some scary daily mail articles it's English culture whether you like it or not
@@hangmanhands5826 I grew up in Leeds. You assume wrong. And I don't read newspapers or watch TV. How dare you tell me what English culture is! The fucking nerve of it 😅
The European guy makes a lot of sense said from tea parties and refinement to booze. Sums it up really 😮
As someone who lives here, Bradford is not dangerous.
wrong mate
I drove through Bradford in May 2021, after 35 years , a dump , unchanged , run down .
Don't drive thru bfd again then?
Bradford is a awesome place 44 years i have lived here never any trouble
Was about to say the same thing we'll not 44 years but not far off lol
I’ve never been but I’ve seen some negative comments online
it's one of Britains crime hotpots mate, and there's no denying it.
Ive lived here most of my life, and there's things about it thst love dearly, but there's no getting away from the fact its one of the uks most expensive cities to insure your car, and one year recently, manningham, girlingron and west bowling were 3 of the top 5 most expensive post codes in the entire nation to Insure a car.
it's also one of the most burgled cities in Britain, one of the most violent, with one of the highest percentage of drug addicts and alcoholics in Britain.
We have a good side, but our dark side is huge.
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirse defo agree I live in manningham, well the nice part lol but any insurance in bradford is sky high because of all the scrotes who have never worked a day in their lives world rather steal than be a meaningful member of the city. Real shame, as couldn't think of living anywere else tbh
No trouble in 44 yrs? Try getting out of your house for once....
The Turkish bloke said it all, I moved out over 20 yrs ago and never looked back.
It's not been the same since Big Anna passed away.🙁
cmon ladd south yorks where bassline started your lot just smashing it atm
Perception vs reality ❤
I'm Bradford born and bred. Thank god I managed to escape..........look at some footage from 40 years ago. It was a great city once......now it's a tragedy! City of Culture.....do me a favour!
No one does grooming gangs like Bradford.
World class
Rovrum
bassline was born in Huddersfield broski
dont play gangsta if u not, nobody stab u for free. remember it...
Go on lad so true
Mum life no crosses I live in Bradford and there’s talks of gangs everywhere
Bassline is from sheffield Niche is from their
Even the dog was shooked when they said Bradford is a nice 😂😂😂
Bradford is alright, people are cool. Good food. Everyones doing their own thing unless you're intentionally looking for trouble. Northern towns are blessed. The real shitholes you'll find in inner city Birmingham and London.
Russian at 6:39 sums it up exactly!
Eyup Frank is that you the boxer,remember ye int'80s, I used to be spike
Mc chippy : culture innit countries have culture Bradford has its own culture innit 😂😭💀
Bratdord sounds great im in sun bed city in essex worth a look..
I used to go to Bradford once a year- it has a very good pantomime.
Saltaire is also lovely, not that far out of the centre.
Other than that, it’s a shit show I’m afraid.
Nice people in Bradford, food is amazing, used to love it when I used to go out on the pull back in the days, but over everything I gotta say, people are really nice and friendly. Anyone that goes to Bradford will feel that belonging vibe. Brummies won’t even offer a Hi, hello let alone offer guests tea. Brummies will take guest to restaurant and expect the guest to pay. I lived in Birmingham and Bradford, two cities full of Pakistanis, but Bradford is Bradford, it’s the people that make Bradford, it’s not another toilet like other places. I wish I was born and bred in Bradford.
You been smoking crack.
You know what you are don't you?
Yep, you know.

Are they a comedy duo?
WTF?!
I lived in Bradford last ten years and I found it safe and pleasant.
everyones either drunk or stoned by the looks of it
Absolutely fine it's a refugee mixture of good and not so good life goes on.
Yeah I mean I got to say not best place for jobs I don't think many will disagree
I lived here 23 years believe me 93 percent of the population on benefits that is so true I can’t stress enough how difficult it won’t even consider hiring someone even with the right credentials
