What's the worst area you know?

I usually work woodford chigwell and loughton which are all nice areas but as my ganger is off this week ive been shoved over hackney as they have a shortage of second men and vans.
Have grafted that area all my life until a few years ago and forgot how bad it is.
Depressing doesnt come into it.
During the day i have seen blatant prostitution,drug dealing/taking and violence for no reason.
Everyone seems to have a brown paper bag with a can inside (although why they hide it is beyond me)
Still decent people living this area both black and white who deserve better but nobody seems to care.
As i drove home down the 'murder mile' and down the lea bridge road through woodford and finally to home i just wonder how a place so close to me can be so diffrent.
House prices are the same there if not higher but the people are just in another world.

There's some lovely places round here , there's a few shitholes too ...mainly deprived former pit villages to the east and dearne valley. We dont have many ethnic people in the borough but all around barnsley its full of asians and black people, its like we are an island.

Batley in West Yorkshire is not very pleasant.
New Cross in London is also terrible.
There are no bad parts of Shaoxing here in China.
Hong Kong is equally safe.
