Kodopo77 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I live on the Halfway estate in SE Sheffield. There are 2 sides to Halfway; a council estate and a private estate. I live on the private estate and its very nice and peaceful but the council estate and up where the shops are have given Halfway a particularly bad name with gun crime and anti-social behaviour and whatnot. Anybody else suffer with this issue on their estate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Joker Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 There are 2 sides to Halfway; a council estate and a private estate. Hence the name, Halfway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodopo77 Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 Okay, I think this may have been misinterpreted I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the council side because I don't think it's a particularly rough estate, compared to the others in Sheffield. But outsiders think it is and its giving the whole of Halfway a bad name. I don't think its fair to call either side "rough". I was asking if anyone else has the issue where outsiders think the whole estate is a s***hole because they think the council estate is one.

woggle Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) You sure you don't mean Westfield? . I didn't think there were any shops at Halfway except Morrison's Reading your previous post about Challoner and Pedley, you refer to Westfield not Halfway.

woggle Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I live on the other side at Waterthorpe, near enough to Westfield and never had a problem. You can get problem neighbour's even in the most upmarket postcodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
