Post subject:  Shitholes of America

Let's be honest, we have all referred to certain places of this very country as "shitholes" (correctly in most cases I might add)

What places in the US fit the bill as "shitholes" (cities, states, counties, etc.)

My list:

1: Cleveland
2: Buffalo
3: West Virginia
4: St. Louis
5: Alabama

We went to St. Louis a few years ago. I thought it was a pretty good place for a weekend and want to go back.

I want to change my list. Replace LA with Washington DC. Can’t believe I fucked that up so bad.

I thought of DC. I think it's great except for the politicians.

When I see the worst possible crime stories in the news, I just assume it either happened in Ohio or Florida.
Wisconsin is doing it's best (worst) to get on the list..........

No way. Ft. Bragg is awesome. Ft Hood is cool if you’re not being murdered by a Muslim army officer. Ft Leonardwood in your state wasn’t bad.

Ft Polk is uniquely, singularly awful. There’s no place like it.

Isnt that where you got your drive through liquor places you liked so much? :lol:

Outside of Ft Polk is cool. You got drive through liquor places, old black dudes rocking confederate flags. Strange place.

The base and everything about it sucks.

Philly/Camden, PA
Bridgeport/New Haven/Waterbury, CT
Kingman, AZ
Shreveport, LA
Gary, IN/Rockford, IL
Stockton/LA/other Cali cities -- overrun with growing tent cities, despite glowing official economic data. i guess once you've been down and out long enough, you don't even register on the official economic indicators.

Most of the riff raff is west of Sheridan Road, but this whole town has taken a nose dive over the last decade or so.

DC is spectacular starting from the Mall and going Northwest along Connecticut, Wisconsin Avenues toward Maryland--the part of DC btw Rock Creek Park on the east to the river on the west. Travel southeast from the capitol along Pennsylvania Avenue toward the Acacostia River and beyond and it's not so nice. Not at all.
