Lived here from 77-02. Came back for a visit a couple of years back and was shocked by the decline of the town centre. Tents for the homeless in the Wyvern carpark.

😂when I lived in Oxford, the local evening paper had the headline, ‘SWINDON IS A DUMP’!!

[@benwherlock9869]

I got out in 1987 thanks to my Dad. Maybe Swindon will be more interesting in 2080. It needs time to become attractive to people.

Painful to watch. Swindon now is a dump. Get out if you still can.

[@loosesurfer]

There should I move to I genuinely want to move but am unsure where to move to that's not as bad 😂

[@InformationImportant-ho7nu]

Agreed, town centre is like another world now.

[@guitaroidman524]

​@@InformationImportant-ho7nuIt's another country now. Whenever I go into town I rarely see another white person.

@@loosesurfer Plenty of great looking places situated near to Swindon include Oxford, Cheltenham, Bath, Salisbury & Reading. Even out of town centre shopping areas such as The Designer Outlet & Orbital Shopping Centres in Swindon are great. It is simply the town centre itself that looks dreary & neglected with all its closed shops & new development builds going on such as the proposed new bus station.

@DarrenMartin-x9v very true shame about the crime situation in swondon though. So many stabbings and even murders in our town is wild. Hopefully things drastically improve
