Sh*tholes of the World Thread - Page 15 - EDF Forum - Politics, Lifestyle, Travel and Gambling

i live in seattle and in a downtown area that is dead center between 4 homeless shelters. There are a lot of bums, and most of them will ask you for change, but if you just say "I dont have any" they leave you alone. LOL at saying they are aggressive, try hanging out in Chicago, or in a real ****hole like Gary Indiana or Houston.

Is this around Pioneer Square? I used to work right by there, and yeah it's not perfect but really not bad. I live in the Bay Area now and can testify there are areas of SF which get way way sketchier.

Chicago is mostly ok but late night in certain parts near the loop can feel dodgy. Most of the serious crime happens in places visitors would never go though.

Glad to see Gary, IN and Wilmington, DE already mentioned ITT, for sure the biggest ****holes I've been to.

Lol what ? Poker , good dining options at casinos and outside , concerts all the time , a beach , a boardwalk , bumping clubs , half drunk girls that want to party on weekends. Sometimes it seems most of you are from old Greenwich , the upper east side or something.

Hilo, Hawaii. I didn't like. Seemed like it's just a run-down town getting by just enough because that's where the planes land and it's close enough to the national park.

And yes again to Gary, you can literally smell the city as you cross the toll bridge

Ya northwest Indiana should be considered as a filming locale for the next Mad Max movie, it's really got a postapocalyptic vibe going. I used to see weeds growing in the middle of the freeway driving back from Majestic Star.

Cuba: While I absolutely love the city, large swathes of Havana- particularly 'old' Havana are filthy beyond belief and you can barely see the pavement for the mangy stray dogs lounging everywhere. Many of the buildings looks days from collapse.

Haiti: Port au Prince- probably the worst place on Earth other than Mogadishu.
