Least Favorite City You've Ever Visited

[Slant Eyed Polack]

Little known fact: Las Vegas is an obscure Latin phrase. It means “Sprawling Urban Shithole In The Middle Of Nowhere, Punctuated By A Vomitously Gaudy, Plastic, Festering Open Sore Called The Strip.” I was condemned to a TDY there some years ago, when some agency or other analyzed the public sewage & determined “We’re Number One!” re: meth consumption. Victory!

Great place. Really.

New York City NY.

Dirty, expensive, unfriendly.

Riyad, Saudi Arabia

I don't travel a lot any more but New Jersey and filthadelphia are on the bottom of my list.

Paris, France.
Twice.
It was nice to see all the historic places, but the people are rude as hell and the city smells of burnt garbage.

Some parts of Jersey are nice. Once you get within 20 miles of Newark or Phila, it gets bad real quickly.
That said, I'll pile on the votes for NYC, Philadelphia. Would also throw in metro Baltimore (except for the Inner Harbor which was nice when I was there years ago).

Since I've lived across the pond in the UK, I'd have to add two places in Leeds.
Harehills, Beeston and I never felt safe in certain parts of Wakefield because of the Pakistani population.
Sad to say also, Terre Haute/West Terre Haute, Indiana is now a shithole.
That's where my Grandparents and parents are from.
My cousins tell me it's nothing like it used to be.

I have a cousin that married a brit and moved over there 15 years ago. She came home for a visit just before covid she said their being over run by "curry people" that are turning the country she liked in to a sewer they came from.
There planning on coming back to the us permanently when he retires in a couple years.
