According to families living in Birmingham's'squalor' neighborhood, a neglected town is so filthy that mountains of garbage can be seen on Google Maps. Plastic bags, crisp packets, and takeaway boxes were strewn across highways and pavements in Newtown, just north of the city center, although bins were overflowing. According to Birmingham Live, Matt Bond, who has lived in the town with his family of six years, is concerned that nothing will be done because people are dumping trash all over the place. Mr Bond, who expressed his dissatisfaction at a local ward meeting, said: "I don't know if you've ever gone on Google Maps and Googled our city from an aerial perspective." It really does look like a garbage dump, as it does.
