    I'm not worried when I walk out my front door. There's worst places than Lewisham. Brixton, Peckham, Liverpool.. Etc

    I live in Greenwich, surprised by its inclusion. Then again the only trouble I've witnessed have been on buses coming in/out of Lewisham so that may explain it.

    How can you be surprised by Greenwich? its the borough of Greenwich which includes Woolwich.

    Bournemouth came 288th on that list...and the local rag still went into meltdown and rated it "one of least peaceful places to live".

    PMSL...

    Heroin may have been around for 100 years but large scale drug importation and use only really took off in the mid to late 80s when armed robberies became harder to carry out.

    You got it the wrong way round. Much harder to commit armed robbery when you can't point the gun cos you're stoned out of your box on smack.

    I live in Lewisham, my Dad lives in Bexleyheath. I know which I find more lairy. The Lewisham Central ward quoted above covers the High Street (where the kids fight after school), the hospital and Europe's largest police station. Why might that have quite high stats for violence?

    Lewisham: So good they named it once.

    Nah. Bermondsey.

    That's a nice sound as well, Bermondsey
    You can get a light and bitter, and it sounds nice
    Light and bitter, that sounds nice, I'd like a light and bitter
    Oh cheers thanks a lot

    Took a trip back to my old stomping ground,Bexleyheath and the Heath recently. Not too fancy. Would like to think I could go back at some point. Those specs must have been made of solid red plastic. Either that or I'm an auld c*nt !!

    That makes at least 2 of us then.
    In shorthand I used to live in Northumberland heath/Erith/Bexleyheath,great memories,left in 1990. I visited recently and it ranks as the most hostile night out I've had. Just saying

    No offence meant I just didn't understand especially the "Bermondsey light and bitter " bit.

    Going back to your old stomping grounds it's never the same.

    No one has noticed the regeneration of central Lewisham, high rise blocks of luxury flats being built on every corner. I've been based in business there for many years never had a problem even with a travellers site next to us.
