Charleroi, Europes most depressing city

24 comments
  1. I live in germany but my cousins live there. I was in Charleroi like 7 times in my life and it looks like a complete different world 😅

  2. One time I slept there because I had a flight early in the morning from the airport. Never again

    What is the background for having such a dump in one of Europe’s wealthiest regions?

  3. A lot of places in Brussels look pretty sketchy too. This is the seat of the EU, hosting dignitaries from all over the world and it’s one of the filthiest (European) cities I’ve ever seen. What’s up with that?

  4. There are parts of the UK that definitely much worse than this. Former northern mining towns, or former seaside resort towns in particular. We’ve got some extremely bad poverty here.

  5. Don’t know, strange to hear that Belgium city is most depressed… I think if you haven’t seen the real poverty and bestial conditions of life, the boring life near Swiss meadows can also very boring and depressing. Someone needs to eat, someone is missing a little to get the new Audi R8 – and both think that it is a problem)))

    Photo N 2 and 3 – most of German cities for example

  6. I’ll always remember one of the first views I had seeing the city for the first time: factory cheminy ejecting flames like in the intro of blade runner!
