Northampton is a very destitute area. So many homeless. Charity shops, vape shops (soon to be shut down by the 100% tax), hoodies with white shoes. The roads are terrible to drive on with what looks like zero maintenance on them (apart from patching them up)... The houses are all on the verge of collapse thanks to a stupid "listed" status. Rent is very high. It's a terrible mess of a town. There needs to be more police presence, a removal of the "listed" status of buildings (just look at st. Edmunds hospital - pathetic waste of land), lower rent, new roads (not just patching potholes), newer buses (I saw a 2006 bus still operating! Are they waiting for them to achieve classic car status?) the homeless need to be housed (use the st. Edmunds hospital area to build a high rise apartment complex) ... The UK is taxed up the behind. Use the tax money to improve the terrible state of the country, not to fatten the politicians pockets.

I was born in Northampton in 1956. I avoid going there if I possibly can. It's a disgusting place to be honest with no redeeming features. Everything I remember about the town from my childhood is gone. Sad but true. Small wonder it has been denied city status on numerous occasions.

“A bright future ahead of it” “New bus station brought new life and energy to the drapery and the market square” gridlocks because there’s no room for buses to move, demolishing the market because ‘making room for entertainment’ ? Ridding people of their jobs in favour of a Shitty pop up sand box or another random bidding for meat van? Yeah seems very bright. I love shopping in the only place open in town after I’ve said hello to the entire homeless population, love seeing the market under construction, really enjoy seeing all the ‘to let’ signs But that new train station was brilliant for bringing in new people and businesses :)

A traditional market town which has killed off the *fish market and ignored the market square for decades. I can remember when people went to the market on certain days because stall holders would be there on those days. Now the market is really limited and when you speak with the marketers, they say rents and rates are killing the market. Many of them think the market will be an empty square within fifteen to twenty years. I hope they're wrong! *Fish market, in a central town like Northampton? Ah well, at least we've still got the Northampton lighthouse.
