Clacton truly is terrible
So is Bridlington
Bridlington is ok now spent a lot of money on the beach front. Went last summer was really nice and thriving.

Scarborough on the other hand is absolutely fucked especially the town centre and street down to the front.

Whitby still my favourite on the North East coast

Honestly since Covid it has literally just been left to erode.

Whitby is still the best of the East Coast. Still absolutely immaculate

I'm amazed nowhere in the North East has made the top 20. Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and surroundings areas are not particularly great places to live

I'm surprised Crewe isn't on the list.

When I visited its town centre over the summer it was in a dire state

So is Bridlington
Bridlington is ok now spent a lot of money on the beach front. Went last summer was really nice and thriving.

Scarborough on the other hand is absolutely fucked especially the town centre and street down to the front.

Whitby still my favourite on the North East coast
Staithes is also a nice visit. if you don't get done by the parking nazis that have cctv at the top of the village.
