They just don’t seem to want to be sociable.

Dundees had a lot of money pumped into a big waterfront/que side lots of new places opening up

Nice cocktail bars

Maybe it’s to small to have an active swinger scene

The local club seems to struggle for people through the doors

I’ve tried the club a few times but it doesn’t seem well supported from locals and just before Xmas it was rumoured it may close if it doesn’t pick up, which is a shame as they have spent money on the club

They used to be so busy miss the organisers from back then that put on the big ones with a dj, buffet,etc. Remember my first one for many different reasons.

There is still ones in dundee just a smaller scale and not big events like Aberdeen and Glasgow etc.

I attended club Bacchus last night and there were three cpls in the lounge and one cpl down in the play area, there was also a single female and myself and of course Heather.

So, if you lot had come along and mingled then it wouldn’t be so quiet in Dundee 😉

Everyone was friendly and open and engaged in conversation and fun was had by some down in the play rooms.

If only the people on this post had attended then it wouldn’t have been near as quiet, just saying, use it or loose it.

Been to club Bacchus a few times, enough to make my mind up to not go back. I won't repeat what ive said in previous threads about the club. Its easy to search and see threads of whats been said and how staff respond back. Also other clubs don't struggle or have the same problems.

Think your a bit out of order there , I’m not saying dundee doesn’t have its problems but what town / city doesn’t

Dundee is definitely on the up lots of nice restaurants and bars.

Yes the fab side is a bit slow, Edinburgh and Glasgow have a bigger population so it’s alway going to be busier

But since I put this post up I’ve had lots of pm’s

Well I can assure everyone on this thread, that as a born and bread couple from Dundee, we, nor do our circles of a family or friends call it Scumdee. Sounds like you may have a bad attitude. It’s certainly got a lot more to offer than Kinross.

Dundee was voted the best and happiest place to live in Scotland in 2025 for urban and demographic-specific categories. (Feel free to fact check that)

Hey, it's not a competition to see where the best and worst place is, I know Kinross is a shithole, I should know as I live there, but you obviously don't realise what people outwith Dundee call it, it's local knowledge.

So now you have changed your statement. You originally stated that ‘ As locals give it the name... Scumdee.’

Now you’re saying ‘you obviously don't realise what people outwith Dundee call it’

In all honesty, we couldn’t care less what you call it, but don’t tell lies then try to change your statement.

Locals gave it the name? Dundonians generally find it offensive, derogatory and outdated. If you mean people outside Dundee, yes people still use this derogatory nickname. I've heard more recent years shift to Sundee as it is recongized as the sunniest city in Scotland (hard to believe with all the rain and wind recently).

Must say that you really are coming across as contradicting and inflammatory. Never in my 50 years have I heard a local “in the true sense of the word” refer to it as scumdee.

Seems like you’re just out to ruffle some feathers, which is a stark contrast from what most people are on this site for. Bit pathetic if that’s your game.

So, in the words of Alan Sugar if he was on this site “you’re blocked.

Feel free to use Google yourself, infact I will copy it for you and it even tells where to avoid.

Google:

Based on online discussions and resident forums, Dundee has historically faced challenges with its reputation, sometimes unfairly dubbed "Scumdee," but many residents now view it as a transforming city with distinct neighborhoods.

When discussing areas often perceived as rougher, lower-income, or having higher social challenges, online users frequently mentioned:

Key Considerations:

Social Deprivation: The 2024 Poverty Profile notes that East End and Coldside wards have the highest proportions of their populations living in the 20% most deprived data zones in Scotland, at 71.8% and 61.1% respectively.

Misleading Nickname: Many residents argue this reputation is outdated, noting that the city has undergone significant regeneration, especially around the waterfront, and is now considered a cultural hub.

Subjectivity: Views on which areas are "rough" vary, with some finding areas like Stobswell, which was formerly considered a danger zone, to be safe and vibrant in recent years
