What's the worst town you've visited?

Question

and why?

My 3 personal hates are:
Walsall, England. It's a sh!te hole full of single mothers on benefits and chavs!!
(i'm allowed to say this because i was born there!)
Compton, CA. White English guys should not visit this place. I lived to tell the tale. Never again.
Brindisi, Italy. Thought i was going to be raped! Butt F**K Egypt!

Answer 1

Dijon in France, its a filthy little place

Answer 2

It's a town in Colorado, I don't want to say the full name cause I'm not sure. It's Greens-something about 40 miles east of Denver. We had an ugly car accident there, we hit ice and destroyed our car. Even though we lived in a different state we had to return a month later to go to court because we didn't have the proper updated insurance card. When we returned we spent the night in that town and it was a tiny town like with 3 restaurants and 4 hotels. The woman at the court was so rude, she asked us why we crashed and we said cause we hit ice and she said she drove on the same road we did for many years and she never crashed once. She made us feel awful for crashing! She was blaming us for something that was totally out of our control. The whole experience was bad and I get a bad taste in my mouth when I think of that town!

Answer 3

Zagreb before Yugoslavia broke up. The people looked like extras in the latest Zombie film. We arrived late afternoon and had a drink, intending to eat. The beer and wine were undrinkable so we got back in the car and headed for Italy. Trieste is not a great place but it was a wonderful sight that night.

Answer 4

Stevenage. Imagine a toddler left with a grey crayon and asked to design a town. Then imagine some very stoned architects and builders actually recreating the strange scrawlings in re-inforced concrete. That coupled with the town centre stores selling "dioramas" of cattle auctions, pig slaughtering and sheep dog trials and a teenaged populous that take delight spending their Saturday afternoon setting light to plastic toy dolls in the town square and aiming for adults when doing half arsed tricks on their Halfords bought bikes and skateboards.

Answer 5

There is this little town on the edge of the Ozark Mountains in Arkansas called Dover. That town just has an awful feeling to it. I can't explain it but it just isn't right. Its like as soon as you reach the city limits you get this sickly feeling in your head and/or stomach. I hate it! There are other small towns around it but they are nice little clean towns. I think that some ground is just soured.

Answer 6

Derby, England. Toothless men in wife beater vests (even in winter!). Women with pram handle in one hand, and can of strongbow cider in the other (classy), and everyone referring to you as duck! It was like visiting a town thats only purpose was bringing care and mental health people back into the community. Strange experience all round!!!

Answer 7

Chemult, Oregon.
Ran out of gas while out in the sticks. Walked several miles to the one gas station in a 25 mile radius. Saw a truck driver doing some work on his rig. Went up to him and politely asked to buy some gas. He ignored me. I asked again, thinking he didn't hear me. Without a word, he walked into the store and came out with a shotgun, cocked it and pointed it at me saying I had exactly 5 seconds to get off'n his propty.

Answer 8

Fayetteville NC. I was driving to Florida and stopped to ask for directions and stopped in a 7/11 there were these suspicious looking people in the store. I just asked my question and literally ran out of the store.

Answer 9

Oh God, now youv'e started something, I HATE Manchester with a vengence. I've been only once one Saturday to look at the shopping centre. I was looking for a parking lot for ages going round in circles, you Didn't want to hear my language.When I finally parked up and went shopping OMG, what a dive. Filth is the word that springs to mind.
Sorry if your Manchunian, did I hurt your feelings ?

Answer 10

William Penn, PA near Shenadoah, PA. There are a few houses that are sort of still standing with junk cars and such, lots of coal banks and orange streams from acid mine drainage. Scary! It's a sin!

Answer 11

Accrington, though the people are so friendly the town is abysmal, nowhere to get anything decent to eat on a Saturday lunch time and the best place there is the road out of it.
