Google search has a bad impression of Suffolk’s major towns, calling most of them “a dump”, we can reveal.

Typing in a Suffolk town name followed by the word ‘is’ in the Google search bar generates an autocomplete list of suggestions for you to click.

And they are mostly unflattering or unintentionally funny, with only Haverhill appearing to be any good, with Google suggesting “Haverhill is happening”.

Which is ridiculous in itself.

Here is the new Google map of Suffolk. Please note only larger towns work – typing in smaller ones does not generate a “[town name] is” autocomplete suggestion.

Not great: Google’s suggestions for Suffolk towns do not paint a good impression

Here is the list of towns and descriptions we discovered on Google, where the autocomplete suggestions are based on search term input from other Google users…

Ipswich is a dump
Felixstowe is a dump
Felixstowe is in which country
Woodbridge is ghetto
Lowestoft is a dump
Lowesoft is bridge still closed
Bury St Edmunds is it a city
Bury St Edmunds where is it
Sudbury is small
Lakenheath is bombing your
Haverhill is happening
Halesworth is on the map
Mildenhall Istanbul Kebab
Orford is shithouse

Happily, typing in ‘Norwich is’ results in ‘Norwich is inbred’.

And on that bombshell, Google has redeemed itself in the eyes of the Suffolk Gazette.
