Come with me as I show you around the town I’ve called HOME for the last 3 years.
Hounslow invokes a lot of mixed feelings from the British public with some downright trashing the place so I’d like to give an unbiased view into the borough.
I’ll let you make up your own mind.

I Lived in Hounslow for the last 10+ years with few episodes of desertion, and of course it's not South Ken here or Hampstead but many people call it home and problems are everywhere no matter where you live. I personally don't mind living in Hounslow and I wanted to say thank you for at least one positive video about this place.

My sentiments exactly. while it’s definitely not perfect, it’s also not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. And very convenient to reach other places with Heathrow just a few stops away

@@travellinglostsoul7191 so many of these walkabout videos show declining cities and boarded up shops. Here we have a bustling town centre and people just getting on with their lives. This is a pretty accurate portrayal of the town centre.

I was born and bought up in Hounslow and people like to talk down to it but this is the only town on this whole island which can truly shut its borders and survive because we have not only Heathrow airport but some of the best schools and pharmacy companies 🎉 being so close to the airport is both a positive and a negative as you will realise a lot of different cultures pass through every 10-15 year for example you had a lot of Eastern Europeans mid 2000s Asians and carribeans before that and now more Arab and East African ❤ you will find a lot undesirables late night but generally you’ll be ok as long as you keep it cool! Also Hounslow borough having to deal with Heathrow airport also makes the most money in terms of boroughs but again people at the top steal that and neglect the roads… lately though the Asian kids who grew up here are coming back from places like Dubai and ready to settle down again which is why you see vast improvements like the high street has come along way and we have more then just a few pound shops 😅😅 but hopefully soon less people renting here and more owners come back and build a community ❤

These are my sentiments as well. I’ve been here 3 years and feel totally at home now. Although there are a few negatives, they are vastly outweighed by the positives. You’re totally right about being self contained from the rest of Britain, we could literally survive alone as we have everything here. And we have kurupt fm, best garage station in the Galaxy 🤣 (if you know you know)

I was born in West Mid Hospital in the 70’s and grew up in Isleworth. In my teens you could walk home from Hounslow High St to Isleworth at night with no issues. If I tried it today then I would be a dead man. The High street was great then with most brand names - now it looks like a lot of pound shops. Such a shame how much it has deteriorated.

Thanks so much for the video! My partner and I are moving to Hounslow soon as it is the best place in west/southwest London we can afford. I am tired of reading people trashing the place when it is actually OK. What is the best area near Hounslow centre in your view? We’ll be near the train station.

Your Thumbnail needs to be more eye-catchy 2. Your Video Title, Meta Description needs to be improved 3. You need to use more relevant tags and keywords 4.

London was a great city before the migration crisis and the cost of living crisis. It is a great diverse but very expensive and complex place and a lot people who live in has to go green and less overall crowded by far car accidents and tourist attacks and stabbing incidents and so on gas to become less expensive and the cost of living crisis. Over all ok too much waste bins and toc many fines.
