Worst cities ever?

Ever been to Sydney Australia? That's the worst city. Scum.

Chicago is pretty bad though.

Sydney is bad? Are you kidding?

I recall this topic being covered years ago in "The Book of Lists" and I believe the answer was Cartagena, Colombia.

Baltimore, Maryland

Hot, polluted, people are very nasty, and no trails. Crowed too.

Baghdad

Terra Haute, Indiana.

Great. Another half wit that's barely been out of his home town starts a thread about cities that he hates.

This topic was heavily covered just recently.

I had a bad experience with Sydney, beauty is in the eye of the beholder remember. The weather was bad (it rained 7/10 days), people were grumpy and cold, women were ugly, and the city seemed dirty and gritty.

The Armpit of America - Utica, NY :-)

cleveland, baltimore. tie.

Worst city ever? Hard to say, maybe Rome before the day it was built.

I thought it was well established that Pierre, South Dakota cleaned up in this department (worst city--it's not huge but it is the state Capitol).

Victoria BC Canada.

the running community in general there thinks their sh#^ dosent stink.

very annoying.

I have season tickets to the cavs and drive a couple hours to get there. I have never been thrilled with cleveland and just go to the game, hang around the stadium area and go home. You would never catch me in that hellhole they call the flats that was supposed to be the savior of cleveland.

I rolled into baltimore a few year back, watched Ripken hit a homerun his last year of playing and had the best general tso's ever that I picked up on the way to the game. I must have missed all of the bad areas. I did have to park about 10 blocks away from the stadium in a parking garage that was built for model t's.

I have travelled all over the U.S. and houston is the city I disliked the most.

They did have the greatest "mascot" at a rockets game. It was hilarious.

New orleans?

and that makes a city the worst city ever?wowhave you ever been to Victoria?

Vigorous applause for you sir.

Most overrated city ever is Sydney. Rude and arrogant people (generalisation), too expensive, lack of true culture and f*ck all to see and do.

If you ever visit a major Australian city, make it Melbourne.

tulsa, OK. enough said

The worst city I've been to is Wolverhampton, UK. There's so much deprivation.

Peterborough doesn't have much to do.

Stoke-on-Trent is also a bit like that and very poor, but the people are wonderful.
