Borough vs town statistics

The statistics given in this article are for the Borough of Blackpool, not the town.

I don't know what the boundaries of the town are but I understand the borough contains other settlements. Dgp4004 (talk) 16:51, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

In fact, so many sections are about the borough as opposed to the town that I would go so far as to suggest merging the borough and the town articles. Just as the Liverpool article is about both the city and the metropolitan borough.
Either that or an axe needs to be taken to this article to remove content which should really be on the borough page.Dgp4004 (talk) 16:55, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

Demonym

Should this also be sand grown 'un, (although also seems to be claimed by Thora Hird, who was born in Morecambe)? 205.239.40.3 (talk) 11:54, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

If you were born and bred in Blackpool then you are a sandgrownun. 89.214.149.168 (talk) 08:32, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

Article needs updating

The map of the tramway used in this article is out of date. It doesn't show the branch to North station 2A0A:EF40:5E2:C901:A4D0:1AFF:FE05:7D0F (talk) 11:19, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
