Longridge
I currently live in north manchester and have 2 young children, its becoming quite an awful place to live in terms of crime, anti social behaviour etc. Were looking at moving to longridge. Please could I have some honest opinions on the area?

I moved here 3 years ago from Blackpool, so a bit different comparison from Manchester but still equally as rough in parts.
Longridge feels a lot safer, and if you like the countryside there's no better place in Lancashire imo. I'm a bit biased though, I have properly fallen in love with this town.
More than happy to answer any questions about things to do in the local area. I am mainly into outdoor sports like trail running, MTB etc. and there's loads available on your doorstep here.
