Chicago is a beautiful city. It has its problems, but I can't see how it would rank as the worst city in America.

Anyone who votes for Chicago is either a partisan hack or doesn't travel much. Personally I would be torn between Detroit and Memphis... Chicago is a wonderful city and nobody would care about it if it were not for the Obama Derangement Syndrome some have.
This poll isn't overtly political but I didn't see a place to post polls in the non political section.
Anyway which of these is the worst US city in terms of crime, economy, housing, general livability etc etc etc
Basically which city should be known as America's toilet?
Have you ever walked in Memphis?
Memphis is a hole. It is the Detroit of the south. Beale Street area is okay though. But if I am visiting Tennessee... Nashville is my preference.
Damn. Lots of Detroit here. Having been born and raised there I can say that Detroit is a horrible place to visit, but its not that bad to live there. There may not be any city where the citizens treat visitors worse than Detroit. Living there is not as bad as outsider impressions are.And going there a few times a year, Detroit is improving.
There was a Singapore in Michigan. You can visit there. Which makes sense as answer. Its a ghost town. No livability, no housing, no jobs.although crime is low.
I had an absolutely awful week in Houston once, so I have a grudge with that corner of hell. There were insects that I thought were birds!
I had a rough week in Miami. I got lost and couldn't find anyone that spoken English for two hours!
And I'm pretty sure that goo from Ghostbusters 2 is flowing under Glendale, CA, because everyone there seems to be a complete @sshole.
And I grew up amongst Ohio State fans,so I'm convinced Ann Arbor is a whore.
Like rats in an industrial machine. No freedom of speech.The US is responsible because it supports that slum.
I don't think so, I believe that Singapore supports itself.
There are definitely nice parts of Chicago but there are also very violent parts. Worst is obviously a very subjective label and covers many different factors. I haven't been to most of the cities on here but voted for Detroit. I have not heard a positive story about Detroit in a very long time and the you tube videos of driving around the streets of Detroit are disturbing. Entire neighborhoods have been abandoned and are now in a state of total ruin save for the crackheads that have taken shelter in some of the abandoned homes.
Another reason why I believe Detroit is the worst city is because some of the people there have voiced their opinion that the rest of the country should bail them out.The way I see it, they made their bed, now they must lie in it.
Most ghost towns have a low crime rate due to the fact that there's no one there to rob, murder or rape.
Worst for what? Crime - Saint Louis or Memphis.
Economy? - Detroit.
Quality of Life / Livability? - One of the boom towns like Houston.
The Cass Corridor, 8 Mile Road and a lot of crack-heads.
Check out sometime.
