Basildon is unfortunately regarded as being one of the “worst towns” in Essex.
The crime rate in Basildon, Essex is 95.90 per 1,000 people, according to Police.uk.
Many parts of the town are clearly left to rot. Despite this many other areas seemed the opposite.

I will call you next week mate and we will sort something out
Basildon has a great regeneration plan in the works 🎉 come back in 5 years Ed – maybe the “screaming crackheads” will have moved on 😅
Bit of a difference to Thailand.
Never been to Basildon but it seems like a lot of other places, not all bad but needs investment.
After Thailand, welcome back to Armageddon lol! 👉🇬🇧😂
Good walkabout. Not sure what Basildon is/was well known for. Ford had a Tractor factory a while back.
Its that bad there is no Wetherspoons either, but, a new Greggs! They seem to be prospering no matter how grim the location is.
You need to visit Colchester or Chelmsford for a comparison. ✔🇬🇧💯👍🤔
Basildon ain’t even that bad tbh, the place is literally getting a bit gentrified but look at Harlow, it’s way worse then Basildon.
Nah Purfleet, West Thurrock is worse
Maybe the Las Vegas of Essex. Comedy legend😂😂😂😂
Grim viewing but addictive content and commentary👏👏👏👏
I’ve seen the real Hollywood Sign and it ain’t that great really in terms of pollution, heat and not very friendly people if you’re a Brit. Your tour quide represents all that I like about English people. Great video.
Looks like most 'new towns' like Crawley, Stevenage etc, just dull and grey. Maybe the softcore p0rn is to cheer the place up a bit 😅 apparently in the 90s Basildon was a bit of a lively place with the Essex Boys Pat Tate and Tony Tucker 👊 love the screaming people 😂 god that town centre looks depressing. And that estate looks dystopian 😮
Surely Southend is the worst place.
No way you came to The Bas Vegas !
What's with all the Russian alt accounts in the comments? Almost like all of these anti-British videos all of a sudden on yt are a Russian propaganda psyop.
