I just can't imagine what type of people who don't think twice about littering. It's a selfish and of low intelligence. Anyone who was born in the late 40's and early 50's would attest. Being poor does not automatically translate into being filthy. If I littered, now, I would still feel the slap from my long-gone Mother around the back of my head.

The west park is lovely I go regularly and it's actually very pleasant I've never had trouble there. I think alot of the fly tipping is because in order to use the local Tip they have been asking for photo ID and proof of residency placing more barriers for people. The council will take larger items but it costs extra for them to take them.

I used to live in a tower block in Blakenhall (Wolverhampton) called Phoenix Rise, about 20 years ago there were 6 tower blocks two of which had 17 floors and 4 which had 10 floors in the area known as Blakenhall gardens. 5 were owned by the council and 1 (Phoenix Rise) which was sold to a hosing association. From 2002 they started knocking the blocks down one by one until the last block (Phoenix Rise) was knocked down in 2011. As far as I know there are lots of new build houses there but i haven't been to the area in a number of years

The urban decay throughout the UK started to get out of control in the 1970s, the loss of industry and the growing problem of recreational drug taking has accelerated it. Having a job not only helped to keep people out of trouble but gave them self respect. Even wealthy people living in really nice areas aren’t always better people. Tipton is not called the lost city, this term is a nickname for the Moat Farm estate, a large council estate built in the 1920s that has had a very bad reputation for most of its existence. Wolverhampton certainly has many bad areas but it also has some exceptionally good ones.

Really good video. I live in Sandwell, and it is sad to know that the poverty rate is so high. The crime rate is definitely going up. Only this week a 13 year old was murdered in the boarder of Rowley Regis/Oldbury. I've seen the decline of Dudley,especially the town centre which began when Merry Hill opened.All the large shops like M and S moved out. The majority of school-aged children are also on free school meals. However, one of the largest employers in the area is DPD.

The area in the north you mention, is known as Charlemont farm estate. I lived with my ex in one of those flats before renovation. The "posher" ones are all private - hence the cameras. My ex mother in law lived just up the hill. I had my car vandalised twice. First time they stole the windscreen - YES i said stole! My first kid had been born, and I had to drive to Coventry (30 miles) with the screen held in by black tape, because they had knifed the seal to get the windscreen! You couldn't pay me to go back - though the yellow chips are the only positive!

I am sorry but the community is responsible for making where they live a nice place, it seems there is no community spirit anymore, most people look after the area where they live, keep it clean, do not dump rubbish all over the place because they live there. If all these people are not working then what are they doing? why are they not out weeding, cleaning up the rubbish, sweeping the pavements outside there buildings? cleaning up all the graffiti? - It is because they have no self respect. They expect someone else to do it and it is someone else's job. They get no sympathy at all from me, if they choose to live this way and have no respect for where they live then that is down to them.

The lost city is a housing estate in Tipton. Tipton is a shit hole, but not the lost city. This is what happens when you have a corrupt labour council.A bit more of research would have told you that. Just Lazy.

What I don't really get is why would our Govt. and local councils not want to improved our beloved country, instead of letting it run down into a hovel ... it's not the fault of the residents (well, most of them) that these places are so run down. SHAME on the powers that be for creating this mess 🙄 and it is country-wide EXCEPT for the most affluent areas where ppl don't care about others 😮

The area you call ‘the north’ is pretty much West Brom but it’s known as the charlemont area

Walsall is great (7 years ago) now it's just boarded up abandoned shops with no jobs or anything you can do to get enough money to move away

Walsall has been seriously let down by its council. Youth services are fucked. Education for immigrants is run by volunteers. Police non existent, street racing is a local hobby. Littering is out of control. I live in Palfrey, its not that bad as far as community feel goes. Very mixed ethnicity but mostly the adults get along. The kids are bored and youth services are nonexistent. The local pastime is car racing, gas and weed smoking. Caldmore is a village with a very mixed population. The place would improve if the council made it easier to get about on foot, blocked with parked cars so what could be a vibrant little town centre, its just angry and congested. Walsall is a shit hole but could be sorted out with a willing council leadership. Most locals want it cleaned up, the worst bits are the white working class areas. The more Asian areas like Palfrey are probably more cohesive socially and litter picking parties are busy. We have lots of green spaces here that are under used. Potentially a great place. Side fact, at least 70 languages spoken here. Side fact 2 towns name apparently means valley of the foreign speakers....

your total WRONG on tiptons the lost city i was born on the lost city back in 1967 .its known as the lost city because most outsiders got lost in the eaststate ,or didnt know how big it was ,.you think it has alot of flats know ,go look at tipton in the 1970s bolton court north road flats victoria flats st marks road,the tilted barrel is more bent and twisted than the crooked house was the crooked house dropped 2 different ways ,the tilted barrel drops 4 different ways due to the canal side ,is a local pub thats been kept quite,not enough parking space and locals loved the barrel,walsall you should have gone to the butts or next to walsall manor hospital and coal pool,
