On the border of North West Birmingham & The Black Country, Smethwick also known as "Smedrock" Is over runned with gangs & shootings every other day, Neighboring areas such as Handsworth, Winson Green, West Bromwich & Edgbaston.
Smethwick is part of the Sandwell Borough due Birmingham City Council not wanting any part of it back in the 1970s & 1990s, Smethwick had some of the biggest Urban Development Projects transforming the area (Council Estates) & its still a shithole. Home too the "Notorious" Concrete Jungle (Council Estate yes Gangs) & The Windmill Lane/ French Walls District (Another Council Estate & yes Gangs)
Concrete Jungle was once considered a super council estate, due to its size (& its reputation defiantly matched up) once a mass area full of Concrete Town Houses, 24 Story Tower Blocks, Massionates & Underpasses it was redeveloped, due to crime rate in the area during the 90s, Although its still a shithole there are no longer any Tower Blocks, Massionates or Underpasses, But the Town Houses still remain (still concrete underneath just got bricked over to look nice) still over runned by gangs, shootings & has had its fair share of history with Murders occuring (Gang Related).Another Notorious Smethwick Council Estate Based off Windmill Lane, known as the "French Walls" faced a similar fate with a mass redevelopment (Two Times still a shithole)
