Disclaimer we are leaving out the obvious Detroit, Baltimore, any city in West Virginia or Mississippi because I want a more diverse list :)

5) Cleveland, Ohio- I've never been here, but it just seems like hell lol
4) St Louis, MO- not as decaying as Memphis, a little colder, still sucks, hold a gun to my head to pick Memphis or St. Louis I'd pick St. Louis
3) Memphis, Tn- Basically the Detroit of the south, decaying but without snow on the ground
2) Atlanta, Ga- the traffic here is terrible, the weather sucks, the city is racist af, I really don't see the hype in this city unless you are an escapee from Buffalo, NY or Cleveland lol

1) Nashville, Tn- same as Atlanta, but it is more expensive and colder. Aww, your city has bad drivers, Nashville says hold my beer immediately!! Clearly the worst city in the country, avoid this overpriced **** hole at all costs!!!

No, we were more or less cool with raining ash and chlorine gas spills back in the '80s. We made our mark.

Little Rock AK is severely lacking from your list. At least GA turned blue, i'd axe it from your list. I lived in Gwinnett county for 10 years so i'm pretty familiar, Atlanta isn't THAT bad.

Little Rock isn't a major city. Atlanta is a major US city and there's nothing there but traffic, **** weather, and pollen. It's hyped as this racial mecca, but it's racist af and pretty segregated. Who the hell wakes up one day and says I want to visit Atlanta, GA :)

It is the capital of that trash state, but the population is miniscule in comparison so I get your point. I would never, ever move back there. St. Louis and Memphis are complete shitholes, I think Nashville isn't as bad as Memphis but I haven't lived near Memphis so that's debatable.

Yo, I have to defend West Virginia's honor here. Morgantown is an awesome city and the state as a whole is packed with natural beauty. Though of course, it's not without its problems either.

Personally, Louisville, KY is the worst I've ever visited/lived in and it's not even close. It should be studied in sociology classes as the quintessential example of a "crabs in a bucket" environment. Not the biggest fan of Chicago or Milwaukee either.

I can't speak for everybody, but I'll always love Tampa. Panama City Beach is pretty negligible outside of the actual beaches, though.

I like how every single city in West Virginia is apparently dreadful. I mean, I know the state has serious problems, but that's a PRETTY broad generatilsation.

Also, how the fuck is Baltimore there? I think Baltimore seems like a nice city. The city centre certainly looks photogenic and interesting.

Tennessee does have some beautiful regions if you're into nature. It's a big state so there's a lot of diversity in that area. I've had to drive back and forth between the dc area and little rock a couple times and I enjoy the scenery in tennessee

Nashville and Memphis aren't in the scenic parts lol and those mountain areas are basically west Virginia especially once you get in to counties outside the Interstates

LA isnt the worst city, but its definitely way lower tier than people want to admit.

It has nice weather, some beaches, and theres stuff to do. Thats about it.

But outside of that its overcrowded, atrocious traffic, overrun by homeless people (walk around downtown or somewhere like Venice and you WILL find needles/human shit by your feet), ridiculous rent and housing, a pretentious culture obsessed with self image, etc.

San Diego is the real jewel of California.

Memphis should assuredly count as "major" - its cultural influence is pretty widespread. Memphis BBQ, Graceland, Memphis rap, etc.

I also count Little Rock, it's definitely well-known and constantly makes "highest-crime cities in the US" lists lmao

the only thing little rock is well known for is 1960s racism
