| Comment | It’s strange I was going to mention Paisley here in some of my comments about Govanhill. Govanhill has this really built up reputation of being “rough” or “hard” but I would much, much, much rather live there than in most of Paisley. No offence. Govanhill has it problems but it is really vibrant and there is always stuff going on. There is really active community and loads of diverse spots and activities going on. Paisley in comparison is cleaner, calmer, and might seem to have fewer problems but that place is stagnant. Half the shops in the city centre are closed and crumbling, the shopping centre is like a Martin Parr photo essay come to life, and it sometimes seems like all the activity is centred around bookies and bleak pubs. I would much rather deal with some fly tipping in an exciting and diverse community personally but I can see the other side of it as well. |
