inside deepest suburbia

this was taken somewhere in Liverpool/Moorebank.

looks peaceful enough, but according to some of the locals this place turns into something out of the Thriller video at night. packs of kids roam the streets at night, tagging up, smashing up and setting fire to things all over the place. When dusk falls, the neighbours start to worry.

check out the urban equivalent of bad town planning and social meltdown here.

i know this may be an exaggeration, but i imagine that rather than Thriller, it is more likely to be like Come to daddy, see below:

glad i don’t live around here.
