Default Re: What\'s your least favorite city in America?

1. Kansas City, MO
2. Los Angeles, CA
3. Louisville, KY

Caveats: I live in LA and love to hate it. But I do hate it. Also, Louisville is good for one week out of the year. Kansas City just blows.

And I agree, stop posting little podunk places like cities in western MA and upstate New York or the middle of the desert. They don't count.

Another vote for Buffalo, although it's so depressing I kind of like it.

I've spent some time in Waltham. While it wouldn't be my first choice (or 50th) of a place to live, singling a city that close to Worcester out is absurd. Worcester sucks donkey dick, no other place in MA is close in terms of crappiness IMO. Waltham is dingy, but it's not as bad as Worcester. There are other sucky places of similar size that are worse, like Fall River, for instance.

so any transit system works then? like buses? i guess i don't understand b/c every city has some sort of transit system. help me [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

I mean some sort of rail system. Buses suck, because they slow traffic even more. I couldn't imagine living in a big city without some sort of rail/subway. These systems should help city growth and culture as well, encouraging a better nightlife, attractions staying open later, an urban lifestyle, etc.

Sorry to be a nit but, but

Springfield, MA pop. 152,157
Rochester, NY pop. 215,093
Hartford, CT pop. 124,387
Worcester pop. 175,706

Like it or not, these are technically cities.

I went to Louisville for a wedding this summer and found it to be a beautiful, charming city. My only beef is with the roads and traffic patterns in the older parts of town, which are a god-damned nightmare; I left an hour earlier than I normally would and still barely managed to sprint into the chapel on time. WTF is it with the old French towns and their labyrinth of one-way streets?

Anyway, good town. Too bad it will be forever associated in my memory with being lightly bummed out.
