• Humour. Kirkby is the comedy capitla of the UK. You cannot evesdrop better conversations that you can in Kirkby's town centre pubs. I once saw Alan Stubbs (ex Everton) burn a £50 note after someone made him a bet that he'd be retired within 12 months. He was 25 at the time.

• The Best thing about Kirkby .. IS KIRKBY... The Town .. The PEOPLE. A lot of people from Kirkby have "made it" .. And remained in the town .
• The community spirit...AND there ARE friendly people.
• The best thing bout kirkby is that its close 2 Goodison but most of all it is the home of my 1 and only babe RACHEL BUCKLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She iz fyne n i love her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• I visited Kirkby at night with my dad, i said "well it sighnposted clear enough" so Dad just grunted and said "well I hope that it's clearly signposted to get out". What i am saying is that even now poeple who remember Kirkby as it was when it was first built still think taht it's a bad place, Why? that was all 40 years ago things change so those that still think that kirkby is a bad place can just get knotted.
• I loved growing up in Kirkby, but I was one of the ones who got out when I was older, I now live in the USA and have been here for seven years. My parents and all my family still live in Kirkby, yeah I miss the people, and the great times I had in the bars and clubs, you just dont have that anywhere else but England,,,, but Kirkby is not a place I would bring up my kids in.. My parents did a great job bringing out the best parts of kirkby for me and my brother... Its the people in Kirkby that make it the place it is....

• THE BEST! place in the world to grow up in as long as your clever enough and ambitious enough to get out when your older! before your sucked to the depths of hopelessness! speaking from experience!but when your young wow! the magic of growing up there holt jumps! the canal! the townie! the chad! getting to grips with yeah birdafter school at your school! being one of the ones that never got beat up! aaaaar lifes great until yeah find out you gotta get one!
• I am (apparently) a "woolyback" and southern softie and all that, but I have been to Kirkby many, many times and love the place. Everyone is so amazed to meet a visitor, and treat you very well indeed. Go in the Boffin.
• Maybe coz i come from there but i think that the people are harmless and you're in no real danger (contrary to what you may be told!). All-in-all it was an OK place to be reared..... i've been to better but i've also been to worse places!
• Half of my family live there!
• Yes ok, there is a 30% unemployment rate, and some of the kids are scallies. However, Kirkby is a very green place, it has trees and fields and woodland. Some of the people may not be the most sophisticated around, but they are amongst the kindest that I have ever encountered.
• The don't give a shit attitude that EVERYBODY has. There is no respect for any one or anything!!!
