All those areas you mentioned mate are ok.
Fairfield really is Wolverley, it's the cheaper side, mainly with generously sized ex council houses and housing association. Fairly rural too.
Franche is ok, again quite a small estate and closer to the town centre (about a mile), and Bewdley being about 3 mile away.
Both these areas are certainly not 'rough'!
Big Si lives in Pershore, his opinion won't count...

I grew up in Stourport and then Kidderminster. Left as soon as I could and never went back.
Bewdley is nice but a bit overrun with tourists in the summer, and occasionally floods in the winter.

As mentioned, Kiddy isn't the best of towns. Wolverley is fine, have a couple of mates there. Bewdley is nice too. In laws live in Kinver which is quite a nice large village just to the North of the area you're looking at. I'm South of Kiddy just outside Ombersley, again nice area with decent amenities and close enough to the motorway.
thanks all. it is the surrounding area that is the option, NOT Kidderminster itself
a member of family is moving up there with a new job ...the job is in based around Kidderminster,they are currently living in a town but would like something a little bit outside of Kidderminster itself, the villages I mentioned are what they are looking at and have an open mind to suggestions , looking to move during the childrens summer holidays
thankyou, will pass it on
any other areas worth a look?

If they are working in Kiddy then most of the surrounding villages on the main routes into the town are pleasant. It depends on how rural they want to be. Fairfield et al are now more like suburbs than true villages.
they don't like it "too" quiet
unlike me.....my village is as rural as you can get...when they are at my house visiting they stand out in the garden and comment about it being far to quiet 
bloody townies thanks for the PM

Has half this thread disappeared …or am I imagining things….again? Anyway, not too far from Kiddy is Cleobury Mortimer….worth a punt as a “civilised (I use the term loosely) but rural type place….
