Walton

Ok so we are looking to move to Liverpool from Somerset, missus has seen a house in Walton that she likes the look of, don’t know the city that well what’s it like, what areas do we avoid?

From the early 1960's up to the 1980's, I lived in Walton, close to the park on Walton Hall Avenue. A nice place to grow up, but in the latter years I could not wait to get out. Increasing drug use, violence, and house burglaries. I have never gone back so don't know what it is like now.

County and Walton Road seem to be in terminal decline.

Sad.

I've only got good memories of walton.
The park
The chippies.
The roundabout getting built.
The baths.
Youth Centre
New Years Eve outside the church.
Goodison obviously.
Playing football on the tennis court.
Plenty of busses to bottle for Southport train.
Without being rude about other areas ,I could rattle off plenty that were and possibly still are worse.
*nostalgia eh?

…the prison ;)
 

I grew up in Walton, a very long time ago and only a goal kick away from Goodison. Happy times and good people but it's changed and some of it not for the better. As previously stated, there are some nice parts still but a vast part is in decline and will probably get worse when we move to BMD.
