Chatham & Gillingham??

Exodi

Just to jump on the bandwagon - Chatham and Gillingham aren't the nicest of places.

A few years ago, many I know referred to Chatham as 'Chavham' because the town centre was notoriously full of chavs. I couldn't be paid enough to live there.

Rochester isn't so bad but I'd expect is a bit more expensive.

My forum username is taken from my love of the football team there, Gillingham. Gillingham as a town, however, is horrible. Genuinely can't think of one part of the area that is nice (apart from the Priestfield stadium!!). Chatham does have some nice parts, supplemented by obligatory rough areas.

I actually posted this question to prove a point to my husband. He wanted to look in those areas. Luckily we are now in the process of buying a house in Colchester.
