5 Most DANGEROUS CRIME Areas in BRISTOL Explored!

Hope you enjoyed this video! If you have any feedback or comments, we'd love to hear them! Do you live in Bristol? Are you familiar with any of these areas? Your feedback is valuable to the audience, please share. :face-turquoise-covering-eyes:

I've been a delivery rider for 5 Years in Bristol and regularly delivered to many of the tower blocks and areas listed here and been out late partying 4 to 6 am sometimes I never had any trouble... I have witnessed a fair few assaults but it has always involved intoxicated people looking for trouble... Imo a truly dangerous area is where trouble finds you whether you look for it or not. Compared to townships of South Africa or the Favellas of Brazil Bristol and the UK is very safe indeed

St Paul's Easton, Southmead and Lockleaze are far more dodgy than any of the areas featured here and the first two at least have a lot going for them. The idea that Kingsdown ( outside maybe of Stokes Croft which is a law onto itself and nobody in Bristol would class as Kingsdown anyway) is some kind of crime ridden hell hole is hilarious. The majority of it is pretty posh.

I'm shocked that Easton, formerly known as the stabbing capital of the UK, and St Pauls didn't feature on this list. I guess the crimes there go more unreported with less police presence. With the infamous 'crack alley' and 'turbo island' in the Stokes Croft/St Paul's area and the number of abandoned houses and crack heads shouting in the streets I always felt it was much more dangerous that the rest of Bristol when I lived in the city.

I looked at this video to reminisce and see some areas I particularly liked. I've frequented all of these regularly as I've lived and worked amongst all of them here. I have no idea what anyone's expectations of inner city life is, but the images you've managed to focus on are what a lot of people may see as negative e.g. derelict buildings, tower blocks and graffiti. I particularly like these kind of places as well as the 'prettier' side of the city; however, if you don't show both sides it's totally out of context and could look grim to many. I know what the video is about, but the dialogue in some parts are an exaggeration . Telling people who alight from Temple Meads not to hang around or turn a wrong corner. Jesus, it's not a war zone. Do yourselves a favour and visit Bristol, you'll have an awesome time. Friendly people and great times to be had. If you're not involved in the shadier side or don't act like a dick, you'll be fine.

Great video, thanks. Please come back and show all the hundreds of barber/International supermarkets (that don't really sell anything) that are popping up all over Bristol.

I used to live right near Bedminster. The local govt and cops arent interested in stopping the trafficking of women and public heroin use... In our local feedback forms we get there is no room to write about it nor any questions about either. Vote Reform to protect our kids and women!!!

Lived in Bedmo, Redcliffe, St Werbs, Easton and now settled in Montpelier and maybe it's just me but I've never come across anything I would consider violent except places like Broad Quay on the weekend late at night which can get quite rowdy (fountains, bnb, millenium square, pryzm, v-shed etc). Stokes sort of "feels" like its gotten a bit worse to be honest over the years, mainly due to just rowdy students, but hey, I walk through it every night coming home and don't get hassled. I've walked home to the above locations consistently around 2-4am a few times a week (gigs, lash, late work etc) and never once have I got into any trouble. Any serious fighting I've ever seen has been some goof stepping to the wrong shit or some absolute cod being obnoxious and ticking off the wrong people. Feel like a lot of people who feel unsafe in Bristol are the muppets moving from richer areas paying 450,000 for a 2 bed in Bedmo then having an anxiety attack when they walk past some young'ens donning some North Face as they google maps the nearest Laura Ashley, which in all honest is their insecurity, not safety. No, it's not the "safety" you would feel in certain cities, but there is a sense of precaution some people just have. You need to get used to it in any Urban Area as condensed as Bristol.

Good God, the horrible Graffiti, the UK has no pride left anymore

just a heads up, you use a lot of footage from southville when in the bemmy area.

I've lived in Hartcliffe my entire life and have never once felt unsafe. It can get violent at times. But it tends to be consensual violence. The local herberts do seem to enjoy the odd dust up.

I live just outside Bristol and have been to most of the areas featured, I don't think it's all as bad as portrayed here eg if you go to places like Temple Meads or the shopping centre around Cabot Circus in the daytime they feel completely safe, 90% of the crimes probably occur later on in the evening/night time. Having said that I would never want to go into St Pauls (not featured in the video), I think most crime there is undetected as the police don't want to go there.

yes a new vid

The figures for Bedminster are slightly skewed by the fact that Southville is included in the BS3 area. The influx of monied Londoners and their like to the area has pushed up house prices and where there's money there is bound to be crime.

I was surprised by the stats for the areas you showed, as having lived in Bristol since the late ‘80s, and worked there as a police officer, I’d say Hartcliffe is the only one I’d agree with. Certainly the reality for Bedminster, Kingsdown, Temple Meads and the City Centre is very different to that which you portray.

I am looking forward to all these doing well going forward as so much money comes in to Bristol.

bristol born and bread, and i can assure you most of this info is false, city center unless its a Friday or Saturday night its tame as fuck, most of your footage of Bedminster is just one tiny little area of Bedminster, you mention kingsdown for the most part kingsdown is just stokes croft until you get further into the posh more well off point then its kingsdown, hartcliffe where im from, i can assure you is as bad as it looks and again take it from me its worse than any of the areas mentioned, you called the are before the center temple meads its not that temple meads has a high crime rate its just right on the door step of bedminster which is basically redcliffe as well and again these three areas all back onto the city centre, all im saying is there are so many areas worse the only one i agree with is hartcliffe

Great videos, my YouTube is on play through while I've been sleeping and catching bits as it plays through

That is a depressing image of UK, as a whole.I'm in China for a few monhs and you don't see any of this and most people live in 40 storey tower blocks-all in good condition, with no grafitti and you hardly see any police, apart from the occasional arguments you'll get anywhere. No homeless, apart from the odd occasion when some people have got mental problems, but tents are in camp sites for holidaymakers. Most people go out at night to do Line dancing, in public squares,Tai Chi, play chess, food streets etc never seen any no go areas. There'll be organised crime, but not random muggings etc

The building at 9:37 is on the Bath Road across from Arno's Vale park. Some way from the centre. It's been vacant for decades.
