I do know some yes, there is a family near me that have been here for years, they stayed here when the rest of the travellers moved on, they keep the land they live on spotless, they have horse drawn carts that we see going up and down the road to the shops etc, they have horses in the ground next to them and in the summer they allow the kids to pet/feed them, they are lovely people.

Just like with most things I don't think you can band them all into one category and say 'oh they are all criminals' etc, that's deeply insulting IMO.
