Famous youtuber Bald and Bankrupt does a series on worst areas of the UK and he declares Soho Road Birmingham as one of the worst roads.
Obviously, it's an agenda driven to maximise viewership and getting reactions by senationalising a controversy.
I have done a video to show actual Soho Road, bazaar, market, business hub that employs many and genrate substantial revenue.
watch the video till the end and let me know your thoughts.

I am a former Birmingham resident and sometimes visited the Soho Road and have purchased Barfi other Foods and Arts. But crime figures do not lie. If you live somewhere you become acclimatised to your surroundings and see those activities as normal. I know it is a dangerous area at night and remember hearing back in the 1990s from the Police saying to make sure you keep your car doors locked while driving through and gang crime is rife in the greater Handsworth area also around their is a proliferation of HMOs with assisted living and all the associated problems they bring. I am not saying its one of the worst roads in the UK but I would like to hear your views on what the worst roads in the UK are ?

I would not take B&B opinion seriously! We all have opinions, and he could have said more offensive comments. Truth-be-told there are many areas in Birmingham which are deprived, poverty-striken and run-down. Soho road is definitely one of those areas. Yes it may have some nice indian shops, but it has gotten much worse in the last 30-40 years or so. Soho road used to be one of the main indian streets in the UK, but given the huge influx of Asians, its appeal is not the same as it used to be, the same as southall where these areas as mentioned have increased considerably in crime. I myself would not want to live there and for most people. I think only certain generational indians/south asians would live in Soho road, or new immigrants who do not want to assimilate. If you are offended by a youtubers comment, good you didnt experience the UK in the 1960s till 1980s where racism existed and was the norm, much more than the 2000s. Btw great videos! :) hope you go on more holidays soon

It's called 'entertainment' I know a huge percentage of the shop / business owners don't actually live in the area themselves as their wealth has allowed them to live in leafier more affluent posher suburbs. Let's not kid ourselves Soho rd and the wider area of Handsworth has it's fair share of problems. The independent businesses are not the cheapest or best value for money and there is a lot of social issues with drug abuse/ poverty.

Yes, entertainment but it can affect hardworking businesses and employment generation. I felt ,it was very biased. I don't disagree with the fact that problems are there and representatives don't do enough, however, high street is good and generate far more money compared to many other high street

Exactly my own thoughts, most of these traders no longer live in the area and have moved out to leafier more affluent suburbs

@@DesiAbroadUKit’s the trade off of a higher gdp for the assassination of a pre-existing culture that is the problem for the average English voter. We don’t see a busy high street as worth it for what’s happening

There are more videos out there featuring the Soho Road. From Backpacker Ben, Wendall, Joe Fish and Going Globull to name a few all giving their own insight. The strength of the Soho Road and what it specifically shares with the North Laines in Brighton is the huge range of independent businesses. North Laines is seen as one of the best shopping in the UK. Not just for diversity but inclusivity. Could Birmingham Pride travel down Soho Road ???? Just today I was shopping in North Laines and an independent cake shop had a window display with cookies decorated with Eid Mubarak. Encompassing all communities.
