What's the worst city you've been to?

I think it's a close race between Windsor, ON and Buffalo, NY. Bleak, depressing, poor.

I remember driving down a street one night in Buffalo and I saw this older black women walking zombified on the street. It was the scariest thing I've ever seen. She looked through me.

Niagra Falls on the American side is crappy too. The Canadian side is like a mini Las Vegas with campy amusement stuff. The American side was just... Poor?

I don't like upstate NY. Sorry. NYC is jaw dropping and one of the most beautiful places I've been too. Too bad it's a whopping 8 hour drive for me.

Philadelphia freaked me out. The airport was dirty as hell and it was like being at a mall with the kiosks and people trying to sell you shit. And the city itself... I mean you have all this awesome history but it felt like I was going to get robbed as soon as the sun went down.

I imagine Detroit being like this. I'm going next week and I'm nervous and excited. I'm expecting it to look like District 9.

Worst major city is hands down Detroit. It has a nice core and then just a complete blight of a city around it before things get okay again in some suburbs. Places like Chicago may have big and bad sections of the city, but Detroit is the one where rather than listing a handful of bad places you can only list a handful of good places.

Cleveland is pretty depressing, too.

Belleville Ontario

I mean living there was absolutely hilarious, but it's the most white trash city I've ever been in.

Teenage pregnancy capital of Canada? Check

Meth capital of Ontario? Check

All the most ridiculous people I've ever met live there.

It's like if you took a stereotypical Bible Belt small town and then stuck it in Canada and removed the religion.

Not a day went by that I didn't see something beyond ridiculous.

Yeah, they are. But I was mostly thinking US/Canada, as that's where most of us are from and have access too.

Worst in my area is Oakland by far. San Francisco is a lot bigger but doesn't have anywhere near the level of crime, rapes and murders, and in fact a lot of the crimes in the surrounding cities are perpetrated by people from Oakland. People here call it mini Iraq because it's basically a war zone. People visibly tense up and become more alert on trains passing through the area since it's become a common thing for people from those stations getting on specifically to rob people.

I'm sure other cities like Detroit and Chicago are worse, though.

If North American itd be south of Mexico probably although both Mexico and Haiti Im sure have some great candidates. As far as America, its somewhere in the north or northeast. Probably some nothing town in the rust belt.

Apart from Toronto, is there any city in the rust belt that is a shithole? Seriously? Why is this region doing so poorly?

It's filthy and they literally just made it legal to shit and piss on the sidewalks. I wish I was joking. There are homeless people everywhere.

Crime rates aren't nearly as bad as a lot of other big cities, though. It's just really gross.

In northern Mexico most likely Juarez. Mexico city is a bit of a shithole but its also pretty nice once you get over the bad smell and pollution and bad water. I feel like American cities have it worse. They lack the sense of community.

No idea about the other countries, although when I was in Canada it seemed pretty nice.

Most of the big cities in Canada are nice enough besides a few areas. It's when you go to smaller places like the one I mentioned where shit starts to go south.

Another good example beside Belleville is Dawson Creek BC, which is nothing like a similarly named show, and is full of gang violence, drugs and kidnapping/murder. Lovely place.

To be fair not all of Oakland is bad. It's just that the bad areas are what usually make the news and give the whole city a bad reputation. The bad areas are genuinely shit, though.
