Liverpool: The HMO Crisis No One Talks About

In this video, I take a walk through Fairfield in Liverpool to explore a growing issue that many locals have been raising concerns about — the high concentration of HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation) and the visible impact they’re having on the area. As I walk through the streets, I highlight the scale of shared housing and look at the possible link between high HMO density and issues like fly-tipping, street cleanliness, and a decline in overall neighbourhood pride. This isn’t about blaming individuals — it’s about examining how rapid changes in housing can affect communities over time. Fairfield is just one example of a wider trend happening in cities across the UK. 📍 Filmed in: Fairfield, Liverpool 🎥 Real, unfiltered street footage 🗣️ Honest observations and discussion What do you think?
