Worst Towns in USA

Detroit is like a modern ghost town. There are so many run down buildings and landmarks all covered in graffiti, and the crime rate is really high. Even in the downtown area, there are so many vacant skyscrapers. It's such a depressing place to live in.
Two things.
#1. How can Washington, DC be a bad place?
#2. I heard it's bad in Detroit. I can't believe it's in Michigan. I have cousins who live in Michigan & I don't want them going there. I'm glad they live in a place in Michigan that isn't Detroit.
I used too have to go to gary for work and it's the only place I've ever seen a wild pack of dogs. It's a bizare place. Mixture of slums/burnt down buildings and people trying to restore it to its former glory.
world capitol of murder at one point I wouldn't want to live there I might get shot
Ghetto place I lived there I wanted to leave as soon as we moved there
It's surprisingly boring. Went there on 6th grade field trip, its fine, good food and nice malls. But history *yawn*
It's the worst because it's the capital. America should die.
DC is so ghetto. Southeast across the Anacostia river is a warzone
Gross meth farm town in the middle of California, its cheap, but why do so many people live out there?
I hate this place theres no good spots to scooter, bike, or skate
FRESNO SUCKS ITS TOO HOT HERE! THE ONLY GOOD PART IS ME
Truly a cess pit. Large portions of the city are in ruin. Downtown and tourist areas are nice enough, but there are so many neglected places in the city. Too bad. Lots of murders, crime, and corruption in "Crook County" as well. Over 200 homicides so far for 2013!
Chicago is not that bad, they got some pretty good food and music along with some epic architecture, but it's the gangs and corrupt politicians that make Chicago look bad
Only the South side is bad. Its full of gangs, Very sad, Chicago does not have the best reputation. Even a lot of people who live In Chicago don't have much pride in their city. They probably want it to be like New York or L.A.

Why are you saying this? Baton Rouge is amazing. Very nice :3 Bayous and all that. Very different from Denver, Colorado (ME)
The Newcomers

Grand rapids is a great place. Lots of work plenty to do low cost of liveing.30 min from lake mi. Love it
I live in alamogordo and I can't wait to get out, people are closed minded, and yes its true almost everybody here with money is on the sex offender list... Nobody cares, the school systems are... This place sucks.
The most powerful and respected man in town is a convicted pedophile.
Boring town. A lot of NC is doing good economically, not this area
Just listen to NWA. Enough said.

I live here and Fairhope is horrible. Bad people, everything about here I just absolutely despise. Everyone brags about how Fairhopes this best place to live and all that BS. If you're ever visiting Alabama don't come here.

Flint sucks. I would never live there. I would rather live in detroit

Detroit Saginaw flint all the same full of crime an poverty and gangs
Hardly any thing to do here, and it's depressing as well, some abandoned factories, a lot of empty lots in the neighborhoods, half of the houses that are standing are either boarded up, or have no windows and doors, lots of poverty, high unemployment, and being a stones throw from Chicago (an hour drive south) there are a lot of gangs there as well, but the suburban areas though are not that bad
So true, lot of the gangs from Chicago are spilling over into Kankakee, and plus, there is a heroin addiction epidemic going on as well
