Zombies are slowly laying waste to the northeastern quarter of the suburb. Resistance from a handful of survivors is barely enough to slow their progress. --[[User:Doc Groucho|Doc Groucho]] 20:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 
====December 26<sup>th</sup>====
There are few ruins in the northern side, and the factory there is powered, but survivor presence there is extremely scarce. A group of five zombies is attacking the Dewberry building. Even though it's still a ghost suburb, sleeping safely is possible if you check what's going on outside and keep barricades up. --[[User:Doc Groucho|Doc Groucho]] 14:10, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

The center of the suburb isn't ruined, though it remains unpopulated. [[Feral Survivors|Feral Survivors]] have powered up the SE factory and the phone mast.

Southern Crooketon is recovering and looks a bit less like a ghost town. Jefferson Square revivification point is clear. A radio station is running and broadcasting information in the district frequency (26.12). Methodius General Hospital and Mores Lane Police Department have been barricaded and powered during the last days, despite the efforts of 6-10 local zombies. There aren't news from the northern side of the suburb yet. --[[User:Doc Groucho|Doc Groucho]] 13:24, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 
====December 23<sup>th</sup>====
Very small pockets of daring survivors are working in the area while dodging a roughly equal number of zombies. Power and other services are very patchy. Nobody should sleep in a building without checking how many zombies are outside. --[[User:Doc Groucho|Doc Groucho]] 21:10, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 
====December 20<sup>th</sup>====
Traveling through the western part of the suburb most of the buildings encountered are in ruin.  I've yet to travel east to see if any of the resource buildings are up and manned.  The zombie population seems to be just a sporadic amount of ferals, nothing to series; that is of course in the west.  Scarbrow's report is accurate.--[[User:Slavic|Slavic]] 07:04, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Most of the suburb is still ruined, but there are pockets of resistance here and there. Testing the Revive Point. This could be the spear point to retake the Northern Western section of Malton, that is almost completely taken by Extinction. [[User:Scarbrow|Scarbrow]] 12:47, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Much of the suburb is in ruins, although there are a few signs of survivor occupation. As there are no powered TRPs, and most are ruined, upgraded to ''Dangerous''. --<span style="font-size:90%">[[User:Funt Solo|Funt Solo]]</span> <sup style="font-size:70%">[[Mod_Conspiracy|QT]]</sup> [[Image:Scotland flag.JPG|18px]] 19:59, 5 October 2008 (BST)

Thanks to efforts by local survivors and the [[Malton Rangers]] Crooketon is largely restored. Most resource buildings are in survivor hands and very few ruins remain in the suburb, zed numbers are also relatively low.

Crooketon is a suburb of Malton, located on the western edge of the city. It was once known for wide streets and an abundance of medical facilities, including four hospitals. Noted residents include the Dewberry family who constructed two office buildings, and the MacRae family who owned a small bank and sponsored a local park which now bears their name.

As of the 13th of November Crooketon had the least page hits of any suburb in Malton, with just 22,380, perhaps suggesting Crooketon is the most neglected suburb in Urban Dead's metagame.
