💨 Abstract

Despite being named one of the best affordable towns for families in the UK, residents of Dartford, Kent, express concerns about safety and cleanliness. While the town is popular with first-time buyers due to its proximity to London and relatively low housing prices, some locals report issues with gangs, drug dealing, and a lack of police response to crimes. The town's green spaces and community spirit are praised, but there are ongoing debates about the pace of development and the effectiveness of local policing.
