Just my own observation, but those areas that seem to be declining, in the majority are coastal towns.


They have reached rock bottom as far as the family holiday market is concerned but they have one very attractive asset - lots of multi-occupancy rental buildings that used to be holiday flats. Landlords need to rent them to someone and most go to DSS clients and that brings with it the drug issues.

Blackpool is a good example - it is like Freemo but without the class. But what else has a town like Blackpool got to offer if its primary purpose has disappeared?

The smaller resorts always have been popular with the elderly for retirement homes. Look at Mablethorpe and Skegness for that. So they put the pressure on medical and social services.



“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
