Muskegon, MI - It's ugly, smelly, and boring.

West Lafayette, IN - Just a really boring, annoying city. It's got all the idiocy that comes along with being a college town, but none of the hipness. Well, I haven't been there in years so maybe it's gotten better.

Beloit, WI - Really creepy and depressing.

For all those who nominated Kzoo, I'd just like to point out that it has improved greatly in the last few years. Still not great though.

Either you're saying you've never been to Leicester or Derby. Or they were so dull you didn't even notice them

Mine are:

Houston - for aesthetic reasons. Quite possibly the ugliest city ever. What is that shit-brown body of water you call a river?

San Francisco: Hey look, I'm a liberal Democrat. But San Francisco is largely communist-vegan-overly-PC-sensitive assholes. I went to the Holidays In The Sun festival there, and it was like a convention for green mohawked, Doc Martin wearing Hare Krishnas. That city lacks intensity and balls. And look, how many fucking left-wing/socialist bookstores that reek of incense whose sales consist mainly of The Anarchists Cook Book and greeting cards featuring artisticly taken black and white photos of naked men, can you cram into one town!

It's too bad there isn't a Lord God. Otherwise I'd thank him for the fact that this asshole stopped posting on EA.

I'm gonna sound like a homer, and I am: I spent the first 18 years of my life growing up on Detroit's east side in one of those very nice pre WWII homes in a neighborhood that somehow escaped going completely to shit in the 1970s. Detroit is far, far from the worst city anywhere and doesn't deserve mention in the context of shitholes like Jackson, Flint, Houston, and Orlando, which all rank right up there in craptasticness. The place has absolutely stunning architecture, a thriving visual arts scene, world class cultural institutions and, oh yeah, still my favorite music venue in the world (St. Andrew's Hall). Food leaves something to be desired, but there's enough there to occupy.

The deserted streets/drive everywhere dynamic takes some getting used to, but to compare Detroit to Gary is just way off.

Now Albion, there's a "city" that can compete.

Commie. Isn't it hard to type and eat your tofu spinach burger at the same time?

I call most of Ohio TOEHIO.

Philadelphia is Philthydelphia.

Camden, NJ is pretty nasty.

Coeur D'ALene, Idaho is a pretty city with a crust of Neo-Nazis and meth.



I am surprised no one has thus far said Baltimore, Maryland.

I moved here a year ago. I've just gotten over the culture shock. Junkies, trash, weird tropical/arctic weather patterns, white rednecks stuck in a west virginia meets new jersey mindset, tons of frat boys and sorority girls, progress measured in terms of chain restaurants, annoying as shit ice cream trucks, nicotined haggard women with split ends, rats, etc.

However, I have gotten past all that and see its a city that's like that weird uncle everyone has when they are eight years old. Drunk, toothless, dirty and fun as shit to hang out with. And he buys you candy and takes you to the amusement park. But he yells at his wife, litters, urinates in public and probably sexually abuses his daughter. But he's a damn fine uncle and no one ever tries to make excuses for his fucked up behavior. I think anyone who has lived here knows what I am talking about.

Since I have only lived in a couple of locations, my input may not be worth much, but I have to put in my vote on St. Louis. Some good people, there, mind you. Nothing but misery though....a prime example of poverty-driven, predatory mindlessness. Lotsa crime, and you can bet on it being the folks next door. Drunk ex-biker cops. Toothless, screamy, meth-ed hags. Stupid, stupid crime. Mindless dance-club zombies with whitetrash backgrounds. A church for every two houses. A barely functional public transport system. I could go on and on...

definitely worcester mass

utter depressing shithole

also, hartford, springfield/holyoke, lowell, pittsfield, pretty much every metro area west of boston here in new england.....it's like a shitbomb went off in that area...

Being in Los Angeles is like having a root canal while a fork is in your eyeball.

It doesn't smell like that anymore, or very rarely at least. Still feels like it, though. If you can figure out a way to get me and my family out of here, I will become a Yankee fan for an entire year. No shit.
