Montgomery, AL
Kansas City, KS

Does the South suck that much? I've surfed several forums and most of Americans tell shit about the Southern states.

Depends on the state.

Alabama and Mississippi are horrible.

I'm sure Detroit will be listed in here. I've never been there personally.

When I was sent to L.A. for work, we took a wrong turn and wound up in Compton. :eek:

I played basketball at State Line Park and owned 3-4 big ass guys that just got out of jail, LOL! Talk about poor losers, LOL!


Crappiest place I've ever been? Naples train station in Italy :)

Are we talking about total Shitholes?

I'd run with the time that I got lost in Camden, NJ on my way to Jhendrix's crib.

But I hear that Camden has a nice Marina, Aquarium and Ampathereter.

I didn't see none of that....

Otherwise, I'd have to go with Scranton, PA.... Total shitlhole... It's like a southern Shithole, but up north.

I've visited one of CA's more legendary spots: Trona. Still, with the Trona Pinnacles just outside town, it's not as awful as I imagine some of these places in the Northern Midwest that are surrounded by absolutely nothing.

DC man. once you leave the tourist traps you're caught in a huge ghetto with nothing but more and more ghetto til you get outta the town. at one point when i was using a restroom in the back of this run down restaurant (that was still in business) i figured that was it, i was going to get stabbed.

and the south isn't bad, just avoid alabama and mississippi. and stick to new orleans, houston, dallas, austin, atlanta, and miami, and shit. major cities are good, and if you head out to the country it's not so bad as there's no one out there and the south at night in the country is a beautiful and relaxing bit. there are quite a bit of stupid people in the south, but no more than there are up north. miami is comparable to detroit in the sense that if you're on the bad part of town you will get shot. same with atlanta. dallas and houston have cleaned up a lot, and new orleans... well it used to be nice, now it's just a mess with no end in sight. austin and san antonio are pretty cool places austin is quite liberal and hippie-ish, and san antonio is just full of mexicans, their culture, and influence and a ton of history. the south isn't a bad place to live at all. people up north like to talk shit about it, but isn't that just as stupid and singleminded as the people they claim live down here (alabama) .

Walking around Mexico City wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but walking next to Soldiers with Machine Guns was a little uneasy. Not used to that here in the states.

I have been to Detroit several times and it is a shit hole. The airport is one of the worst I have been in as well.

Pretty much any where in Alabama I went, I thought was a shit hole as well. I went through Basic Training there as well as some other specialty trainings and visited several places. All were shit piles.

You in the Air Force? I work on Maxwell AFB in Montgomery.

I second Kim_Kaphwan's mention of the outer "Perimeter" of DC, that owns Jackson, MS by a long shot.
