Seriously, there are some good bits of Plymouth around the Barbican and university, but it really sprawls. Lots of the city is pretty dull and ugly and a long way from the happening bits of the city centre. Plus it definitely has a higher-than-average quotient of violent blokes who like Union Jacks.
 
Plymouth is more of a city than Exeter. Exeter is a big town really. I don't know Plymouth that well, even though I've been through it a number of times.

Yeah, Exeter is very much in that 'York, Cambridge, Chester' bracket of city. The eastern flank of it is starting to sprawl, though.

I said it was fun, not aesthetically pleasing, it’s a down and dirty drinking city by the sea😁👍

The locals can be challenging at times, this can be avoided by belonging to the biggest gang of professional thugs in the city 🤣

That's becoming less obvious.
 
Plymouth always does well in these polls, and yet... I am on a couple of Plymouth Facebook groups and people are constantly whinging about litter, and young people and the traffic, and cyclists, and the council, and the way the sea front isn't looked after, etc. So it isn't making them happy. Also my family live there so I can't go there any more. I lived there till I was 18 and it was the most tedious place to live - effectively, everything for young people that wasn't sport or religion was banned. Lucky for me I enjoyed cycling so I could just get on my bike and head up to Dartmoor - which i do miss. I left at 18, never wanted to go back.
