Re: Blackpool Rocks
I've worked in Blackpool for the last 6 years and lived on the Fylde for a while too. I think when you live and work in an area you get a different perspective of a place.
I know that Blackpool has a lot of problems and parts of it are like inner city areas, but as a couple of others have said, things are slowly changing. A few years ago Blackpool had one of the worst educational records in the country, but I have seen the changes that are taking place and improvements are happening.
Daytrippers/weekenders will see one side of Blackpool, but you don't see the whole picture and so it's hard to judge the place.
