THE 50 WORST CITIES IN AMERICA
Below - from most to least awful - are America's worst cities to live in, according to
24/7 Wall St.
The site used 2015 data classed into nine major categories: crime, demography, economy, education, environment, health, housing, infrastructure, and leisure.
It then examined specific elements within those categories - such as unemployment levels, availability of public transportation and mortality rates due to illness - to create total scores for the cities.
Only cities that had populations of more than 65,000 in 2015 were included in the list.

I'm not completely buying this. Where's Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City and a host of other American cesspools?
