 | | West Central Halifax has older stone terrace houses which have stood the test of time and are still standing, while North Halifax has many ex-council houses built in the 1950s and 1960s of varying standards; in recent years many houses in North Halifax have been demolished due to their uninhabitable conditions. |
 | | North Halifax is noted for its local support of the far-right British National Party; the suburb of Mixenden became the first area in West Yorkshire to popularly vote in a BNP councillor, with Illingworth soon to follow. |
 | | Halifax town centre has a busy night life with lots of clubs and bars such as The Acapulco (commonly referred to as the "Acca"), The Coliseum ("The Colly"), Edisons, Bar 11, Barracuda and the Tramshed Zoo Bar that was raided at the end of 2005 causing it to be shut down. |
