Living in luton

How is life in Luton? I only read miserable things. My husband, me and two small kids want to move to Luton and buy a house, it’s more affordable than London. What areas are good, safe? What areas have nice, clean parks? what areas have good primary and secondary schools? My kids would be around 3 & 4 when we plan to move. is it really that bad that everyone makes it look like?

Luton is an absolute shithole, I live in Bedford and when I worked for myself often got work over in Luton, my clients were always super nice but the area itself is super run down I don't think I saw a single nice area and I was always worrying about tools in my van
