Moved back to Worthing about four years ago as we couldn't afford a house in Brighton.

It's much nicer than it was when I was growing up. Lots of decent cafes dotted around, good pubs (I tend to avoid the town centre pubs on weekends though).

It's not Brighton but it's a good place these days

Looking for a quieter way of life, I work in portslade , no car so bit concerned over that and too and from Amex is another downfall , but house prices in East Sussex are now out of reach

I grew up in Tarring and generally a nice area. The village has a couple of half decent pubs and there are also a couple of micropubs near the station as well as some decent places such as flour pot bakery.

Not a bad train service from West Worthing to get you to Portslade for work and to the Amex for football although for evening games you might want to look at Seagull Travel either from the station or Thomas a Becket.

Presume you are living in Hangleton now? Do you have kids and/or partner at school or work in Hangleton area or are you the only one who has to consider travel?

Eastbourne no go for work far too far out
I live in Goring, went to Eastbourne for a weekend a few months ago and I found it so dirty and run down from what i remember, Worthing is so much cleaner and well kept up. Probably won't please everyone on here but it was a bit of an eye opener.
West worthing/ Goring to answer the OP question.

Last time I went to Worthing I parked in the multi story over m&s, for some reason I couldn’t find the exit and ended up in the reception for looked like a block of flats, all very odd.
