I wouldn’t live there - I’m from Norfolk so again would say that but the town feels pretty soulless. As mentioned before the train line really sucks too. How comes?
I grew up there and spent most of that time planning to escape. When I did it was to the furthest away university I could get into, then I moved to London and I would never ever go back.
Nothing traumatic happened, it's just an insular, small-minded ugly shithole.
How bad is Ipswich? Anyone lived there?
