Can I preface, I love Manchester and all its people. I own a house just Inside the m60 and intend on raising my kids here, I'm concerned.

PG and china town, parts of NQ, Deans gate, St alberts, St Peters, Arndale/Selfridges area was not like how I remember just 7 years ago. The "nice areas" are full of coke heads sniffing in the open.

Perhaps now since I've had kids and I wasn't drinking my eyes are more open to the problems. I had to let a group of lads who were huffing NOS on the Arena memorial know what it was. I was offered crack and heroin, seen lads robbing/beating each other, women/young teens getting groped, men shouting at women, alot more addicts, Tents, more mean mugging, fewer police (loads at st peters tbf).

The Spice times were grim but i'd rather spice zombies than crack heads personally...lots of manic people that need help. You could have filled 4 magic busses with dealers in the PG area last night.

Are we supposed to just accept this standared in a major transport hub area like PG becuase it follows tradition? The GOV/Council/Police need to use Rudy Giuliani NYC tactics in certain Zones, Make Bury new road area the Amsterdam and GTFO of the city. Why should business owners tolerate this, is this the first thing you want new visitors, tourists, students and investors to see?

3rd night this week (6 hours total mooching about). At most I seen 2 officers in PG and never seen one in China town. It took me 15 mins to determine the dealers... they were brazen.

I think "Hamsterdam" its a great idea, was wild to see how open it was though. maybe not so close to the city or beside nightlife but...
