The top 10 most miserable cities according to Forbes.com
Cleveland
Stockton, Calif.
Memphis, Tenn.
Detroit
Flint, Mich.
Miami
St. Louis
Buffalo, N.Y.
Canton, Ohio
Chicago
Wowie! I've spent a great deal of time in every of these "Rat Holes", according to Forbes, except for Memphis and Stockton. Here's the problem with these listings. Ask most citizens of any one of these places and you're going to receive the "Bronx Cheer" for negative comments. Every city has it's good and it's bad, it's slum and it's developed. Grosse Point, Michigan, for example, is legendary for beautiful homes and upper crust society but today it's completely surrounded by that cesspool called Detroit. If you're interested in deciding why Forbes has named these cities as 'losers' click on each and they'll give the reasons. Canton, Ohio! Whudda thunk it?
If you thought I was going to stop with the Top Ten well, think again. In descending order: Modesto, California; Akron, Ohio; Kansas City, Missouri; Rockford, Illinois; Toledo, Ohio; New York City, NY; Sacramento, California; Youngstown, Ohio; Gary, Indiana; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Getting right to the point, my home state of Ohio sorta sucks!
