Hmm...It seems as though Detroit is becoming or is already one of the worst cities in the U.S. or in the world....I wonder...what are the worst cities in the world?

Well, I work for an airline and I have traveled all over the us and south America, etc. never been to Europe though.....but ya let the previous person said the Caribbean islands I wouldn't say Jamaica but there are people who live with barely nothing in little huts that can get hit by hurricanes and that have nothing and some make a living off of Americans........there life styles are just horrible by any standard making our ghettos seem like the Ritz although, the job market is bad and the city of Detroit may not seem like the best there are a lot of people who live there with there families who are happy and live like kings compared to how some people in South America live.......Detroit doesn't have hurricanes the worst we get are snow storms........Could you image making min. wage and living in a little hut with your family worrying about hurricanes or having no job with a family living in a little hut.......even everyone I've talked to that's been to Europe goes on about how much land you can get here and space of living.....With Detroit you can at least get a lot of land and a big house for your money I don't think Detroit would make the list for worst city we have always something good going on downtown and now the tigers are doing great it helps our economy! we were just in the superbowl as well..........There are a lot of reasons why Detroit is a great place....yes some spots can be dangerous but I lived in North Carolina for awhile and was robbed there and never robbed in Detroit......Crime is going to happen anywhere ya know?

San Francisco is one of the worst in the sense it is overrated. I used to take a carpool to the financial district and I had to walk under this bus terminal where all the bums sleep, and go to the bathroom, and it is just awful. I was thinking to myself, how dare they charge close to a million dollars for an apartment in this neighborhood. That city is so overpriced, its ridiculous. There are pockets of nice areas, but you can't go more than 4 blocks without running into an undesirable area, then you turn a corner and its nice. I think NY is like that too.
Never been to Detroit. The 89 Pistons did have the best defense of all time though.

Go to Bangkok, then decide, the pollution is incredible, there are 24/7 traffic jams and the city acts like a heat sink and your rubber soled shoes melt so you have to wear leather, tuk tuks are the most dangerous vehicle ever invented and lastly crossing the street is a life and death enterprise. The only saving grace is that the people are friendly.

no the white sox received a international sequence in 2005. now that the cubs have a sparkling proprietor in tom ricketts i imagine he might want to turn the cubs round. we werent in a position to make any star trades by technique of the commerce time reduce reason the cubs were in the technique being bought. i imagine in the offseason if jim hendry can both get fired or extra constructive %. up some star adult males. any team in my opinion receives media interest in the journey that they win the international sequence. wrigley sells out each and every recreation really reason were an outstanding team and we dont have a oroblem making it to the playoffs in spite of the actual incontrovertible truth that this season doesnt seem solid the project is we do in basic terms truly undesirable in the playoffs and the gamers like freak out in the course of the playoffs and perfrom undesirable.

kingston jamaica is consider bad for it's huge crime rates and slumps. people will literally rob you even if they know you and you normally have to keep a low key when you walk down the streets, no jewelry etc or you can expect some part of your limbs to be cut off. you can't walk the streets after certain hours and If you spend a huge amount of time away from the area you best get someone prominent who lives in the area to walk down the streets with you.

it has to be California's Oakland...first of all, most houses and buildings look old....many windows can be seen broken. racism makes groups to fight like crazy chickens with each other. almost every week there is a disgusting murder. at day time you will see homeless people walking on the street. it will all make you feel like you are at some war zone. morever, since this place is too big most people lose the way to go back to their own cities. i have heard so many stories on this.

My son's classmate is from Sao Paolo, Brazil and his family moved due to the crime in the city. They literally felt scared even to go to the store and worried constantly about their apartment building being broken in to (the entire building!).
