Worst cities in America

[Diehardblues]

True but that goes for anywhere really.

It’s not quite as profound.

In 1960 Detroit was the richest city in the world.

The past 68 years haven't been kind to it.

Government plotting

DFW greatest metro area in South and fastest growing on the verge of becoming the 4th largest metro area in the country.

I've never found a higher population to be a mark in the "pro" column, so that's not a point in Dallas' favor for me. Especially not DFW's kind of growth, which is a sprawling suburban armpit sort of growth. Like an Atlanta or Houston. Or even a Jacksonville on steroids. These cities are literally the worst America has to offer.

Washington

Utah while a beautiful state not friendly if your looking for entertainment.

Or beer.

Dearborn, MI
Or alt- Somalia--Minnesota

It's growth is part of the problem. Haven't you noticed that they can't keep up with the rise in traffic? Haven't you noticed that the overall demeanor of the DFW population is getting less polite and friendly? Granted, it's still a far cry better than most places. If I have to live in a highly populated urban environment, I'd still choose the DFW, but I've been considering moving beyond the outskirts of the metroplex just to get away from the sheer numbers.

Albany, texas is the best city in America. I am biased.

Salt Lake is just overrun, and full of pollution. It's kind of like a mini-L.A.

New Orleans smells like urine, never going back

Think of it as used alcohol.

Brilliant, and I concur fully.

Easily one of your best post ever. Lol AWESOME.

My daughter goes to school at Bryn Mawr College. Very nice area.

 

[Zordon]

Marfa, TX is the best.

This is awesome. I agree except any talk of bad cities needs to include Oakland, Detroit and Miami.

 

[CWR]

All cities are horrible

For the most part I agree. I lived in Austin for awhile though and as far as city's go I enjoyed my time there. Full disclosure, Im no world traveler.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

The top three worst cities in the USA in no particular order.
Washington - Landover MD specifically
NY - East Rutherford specifically
Philly

Bonus City - Paris TX

That town is about 10 miles outside of Philly. To be clear the suburbs of Philadelphia are great. King of Prussia is an A+ town. Super nice. The city is not.

New York one of my favorite city’s to visit. Chicago and San Francisco not far behind.

Have you been to SF recently? If not you might be surprised and not in a good way.

I travel a lot. Want a good up and coming city - Raleigh, NC. That is a super nice town. Was just in LA - the tent city there is a sight to behold. About 5 city blocks long. A complete disaster.

I will also put Denver in the great city bucket as well. Great town. One more - Boston. Great town.

The hell is wrong with Chi-Town
