Current Events > What is the worst state you have ever lived in?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Assuming you've lived in more than one state

I would say Indiana. The people there just suck, even in Indianapolis. I don't know how to explain it but I just have a hard time getting along with those people. I don't live in Indiana anymore though.

---

Florida

---

Rhode Island, like eight years ago. Everything in Woonsocket had either been on fire at some point or was currently burning. Riots would do nothing to Woonsocket.

---

ive only lived in 2, Missouri and Texas. I prefer Texas simply because of the weather, snow can go fuck itself.

---

California.

---

Tennessee.

I've lived in three states. Virginia, Florida and Tennessee. I don't remember Virginia, we moved to Florida when I was 5. Between Florida and Tennessee, I vastly prefer Florida.

---

Ive spent the better part of 6 months working in Kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio. (Like 6 months in each state)
I like Ohio the least.
Im Canadian.

---

I've lived in Tennessee, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia.

The answer is Alabama, but frankly they all kind of suck to varying degrees.

As much as I dislike Indiana, Alabama is probably one of the worst states in the country, maybe the worst.

It's a toss up between Tennessee and Georgia.

I've lived in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Maryland also.

---

Kentucky is dreadful and full of people with a "crabs in a bucket" mindset. Indiana is way better tbh.

---

Mmm, it's probably Missouri. I've lived in Wisconsin, Tennessee, Kansas, Missouri, and Minnesota.

Bardstown Road area in Louisville, KY >>>>> any part of Indiana imo

---

I've only lived in two, TX, el Paso, and Flint, MI.....but if I had to choose the worst bottom I'd be MI, El Paso has a decent economy and job opportunity still despite how sub par the city is, and the cost of living the same is crazy low.

Sub 600$ studios wtf.

---

Missouri is like the worst state you can possibly live in.

UT > PA > IL

though utah's lack of real sports hold's it back. I otherwise enjoyed it. Weather was decent, you still got summer and winter, but most of the snow stayed in the mountains. Maybe 1 good storm a year and the rest it might make a mess of the morning commute then be melted by lunch.

PA suffers from a lot of things being old and a lot of towns being built before cars were the standard. But western PA is beautiful and there is a lot of american history which I do enjoy. And given I live near philly, a lot of areas are a car drive away.

IL is an awful nanny state with nothing good except chicago. High taxes, high crime, high corrpution. The lake means humidity in the summer and more snow in the winter. I miss portilos and always go a few times when i head back for Christmas, and i'll always be a fan of the cubs and bears and miss not getting to just go to a game, I otherwise have no desire to live there again.

Hopefully I'll get to go out west, ideally near Seattle, but Oregon would be okay potentially. Though there is a small chance I can get work to send me to our California branch near LA.

---

probably Missouri tbh although I hated Tennessee more.

---

California. Get paid more than a salary worker to sit your ass at home rent free or do whatever you want.

I've lived in California, Illinois, Alabama, and currently Nevada. I left CA when I was a year old so I can't say much about it. Spent my entire childhood in Il, loved it, a few bad spots but overall a nice place. I did my time in the Army down in Alabama, even without that the state is a hellhole. NV is ehh, quite as bit here I could do without but it's not as bad as Bama.

Bardstown Road area in Louisville, KY >>>>> any part of Indiana imo

Funny you mention that, I'm less than 10 minutes away from Bardstown Road. With all due respect to your opinion, I feel like that neighborhood has really spiraled. Many of my favorite businesses there closed up shop, it's even dirtier than before, the "Highlands attitude" of the locals is often insufferable, etc. There are some bright spots though, like Safai Coffee.

As far as young adult/hipster neighborhoods in Louisville go, I think NuLu is the most appealing one and Germantown is by far the worst. But going back to the Indiana comparison - I'd trade 'em all for Hubers.

---

One time I broke both radius and ulna in my left arm simultaneously when I was ten. That was a pretty awful state to be in.


---

probably Michigan
Ive also lived in NC, KY, PA
all have their positives and negatives, but I felt that Michigan had more negatives

---

Virginia. But, Northern Virginia which should be its own state.

---

Illinois. It's ok and has some nice things. But the other states I've lived in are better.

---

I've only lived in Minnesota and Wisconsin, Wisconsin is definitely the Alabama of the North

---

Lived in Virginia, Ohio, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and California. Probably go with California even though at this point I've lived there the longest.

---

Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, and Virginia.

Really a toss up between Oklahoma and Kentucky.

---

I 've only lived in Illinois and Indiana, and the answer is easily Indiana. There are worse parts of Illinois, and our state politics is fucked up, but the good/great areas of Illinois are better by miles, my wealthy lakefront neighborhood being very much one of them.

And yet it's the states where people see any public assistance as "taking advantage" that have the highest rates of poverty. Not to mention those states are full of elderly people, fat people, religious boring, boring people.....

Everybody wants to live in California. The only downside is it's expensive.

Utah-Its beautiful, but the people there are assholes.

---

A constant state of depression

I'm moving to Salt Lake City in like two weeks, lol.

I've lived in 4 states: Minnesota, Montana, Virginia, and Texas.

I'd choose MN to answer the question although I don't think it's bad, just my least favorite of that group.
