* [[OopNorth Bolton, Greater Manchester]] in the United Kingdom - well, in some parts anyway, like Gilnow and the border with Blackburn the housing and streetlighting (mainly GEC lanterns, although [[TechnologyMarchesOn newer WRTL MRL6 and Holophane QSS replaced them]]). The area is very much still in TheEighties (apart from the [[TechnologyMarchesOn satellite dishes and cars]], although many 1980s cars are common there - like the Vauxhall Cavalier, Opel Ascona, Ford Sierra,Mazda 626, Ford Escort, as well as newer cars too, so it's partially balanced out). It looks sort of like a mix between 1980 and 2011.
