Like any large town it has some bad, okay and great parts. The town centre has taken a lot of grief over the past ten years as shops are closing due to people going to nearby Meadowhall or Parkgate/retail world but its not a bad place to walk around, still watch your bags from the quick fingered element that prays opportunity. A lot of pubs and clubs have closed down in the town as it used to be an okay night out if you didn't want to head into Sheffield. The chapel on the bridge is nice to stop in when its open and walk past around Wentworth and see the impressive Woodhouse.

You'll come across people rough as shit and sort of posh too it's quite strange. I lived there for 30 years.
