Post the best definition of the city you live in, the city you are from, or both. I don't care. If your city isn't listed then pick the one closest to you or something. Here are mine:

Hemet, California (where I was)
QUOTE

A small city in the inland empire of southern california known for meth, evangelical christian extremists, racists, and gun toting hillbillies. A vast majority of young people there have absolutely no ambition to go any further than working at wal-mart. Said youth are also encouraged to pump out kids as soon as possible (this ties in to the town's typical religious views). It is far out of the way of any other bastion of civilization, and takes about 30 minutes out of town just to get to a freeway. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

"dude, why is that guy wearing a tapout shirt, slapping his girlfriend around, wearing a bear hat filled with bud light, listening to buck cherry, and fucking his neighbor simultaneously, and talking about how black people and jews are destroying the earth?"

"He's from Hemet."

"oh, ok."


New Haven, Connecticut (where I am)
QUOTE

One of the few places in America where rich white kids and poor black men cooexist.

New Haven is where Uncle Tom goes to die.

QUOTE

A little city with ridiculous ghettos but also million+ dollar homes...yalies and homeless people share the downtown. Known for amazing pizza and Toads (Place).

youngstown

Where dreams go to die

youngstown

(n) Where Satan threatens to send residents of hell who are deemed unworthy. This desolate, barren wasteland was at one time an important manufacturer of steel, ranking third in the country in gross production - behind only Pitsburgh, PA and Gary, IN. After helping the U.S. military conquer the Nazis the city turned its attention to mafia car-bombings (known as a Youngstown tune-up). After much white flight, the city became a great place for crack-whores (especially lower Market Street,..you know near Chamlmers). Jim Tressel did what he could to return dignity to the city by capturing 4 National Championships in Division I-AA Football, but any gains made there have since been nullified by the imprisonment of the congressman, sheriff, prosecutor, county commissioner and a couple judges. Mess with Youngstown (the fucking Valley to you) and you will get skinned alive if you are lucky.

Youngstown is one crazy-ass shithole.

"where are you from?"
"elgin."
"why?"
"because im poor."


Here is where I am from, the article neglects to say that it is moderately white trashy

Wauconda, IL

QUOTE
Small town about 40 miles NW of Chicago. Has a lot of things Bakersfield California SHOULD have: a nice clean lake for boating, swimming, and fishing, low crime rate, reasonable real estate prices, 1 hour access to a big city, 1-1/2 hour access to a smaller, cleaner city Milwaukee, a listing in the Guiness} book (Snowball Fight), and a reference in the movie {Ghostbusters] by the Dan Akroyd character "Camp Wauconda...".
Wauconda has NO WalMart}, {Home Depot}, Lowes}, Best Buy, within seven miles. Wauconda DOES have a Walgreens, McDonalds, Subway, Ace Hardware etc. That's enough for anyone. As you can see by other entries, Wauconda also has its share of bored and grumpy young people, but then again, what place DOESN'T?

South River

A small town in Middlesex County, New Jersey with an estimated population of 15,322.
Similarly to its surrounding central Jersey towns, South River boasts a diverse population, mostly white, with two large Eastern European and Portuguese minorities.
The small 2.9 mi˛ town has also become home to a number of illegal immigrant homes, mainly Brazilian, attracted by the infamously large Portuguese population.
The median income for a household in the town is ~$52,324.
The town is frequently described by its residents as a New Jersey small town stereotype, whose residents wish nothing more than to move out.
1. Pete Horzepa and Aaron Daley are two slackers from South River

2. "I just bought name tags for my newest construction workers: José and Ronaldinho.

Polo Mint City.

East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. All the road junctions are roundabouts, so look like Polo Mints, legendary British ring shaped sweet.

Dude, I used to live within spitting distance of there. That's a rough fucking city. Also, go Penguins!

Where I was:

QUOTE
East Liverpool

What was once considered the pottery capital of the world is now a melting pot for that barely surviving industry and the recent influx of drugs, gang violence, and the beloved nuclear waste plant. Located on the banks of the 50% water, 50% toxic waste Ohio River, the small city is home to their very own branch of Kent State University, the Potters football team, and the Poverty Festival, I mean, the Pottery festival.

This is sure to be an odorous stop on anyone's road trip across State Route 7.
In 1990, Martin Sheen and a coalition of environmentalists came to East Liverpool, OH to protest the nuclear waste plant, WTI (Waste Technology Industries) and their polution of the once fresh-water, now sludge-water, Ohio River.


They forgot to mention that Al Gore came through there during the first Clinton campaign to talk about WTI and how he would put a stop to it. Before he got inaugurated, it was already there. He owned stock in the company.

Where I am now (number three):

QUOTE
Anderson

1. a popular sirname (sic) in the United States

2. a poor city in South Carolina

3. a decaying Rust Belt city in Indiana, 37 miles NE of Indianapolis
Anderson of anything sucks


#3 sums it up pretty fucking well. Although Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both made campaign stops here during the primaries, and I saw both of them speak. That was pretty cool. Obama is a much more punctual person than Clinton...that bitch was 2 hours late.

This was one of those cities that used to be important before GM decided to fuck everyone over. We were even targeted by Soviet missiles during the cold war.

Where I'm moving on Sunday:

QUOTE
Muncie

Land of nowhere located 55 miles NE of Indianapolis.

The hometown of Ball State University.

Population 70,000
muncie is about the dullest place on Earth.


It's not really that bad. They forgot to mention the huge crystal meth problem and the mention of the city on The Colbert Report. It IS dull, but not nearly as dull as Anderson or East Liverpool.

Hometown of the University of Texas, and the Live Music Capital of the World. Arguably the greatest city in Texas, which is an easy thing to say when compared with the nearby College Station.

Austin is the only major liberal stronghold in Texas, and because of that, Republican "politicians" such as Tom DeLay, among others, once tried to remove Democrats such as Lloyd Dogget by redistricting all of Texas.

Birthplace of Whole foods, Amy's Ice Creams, the Aggie Joke, Michael Dell, that guy who plays the bongos naked (not Leslie), along with various other famous hippies.
Austin: currently being encroached upon by Conservatives and Californians.

Boston, MA

most kickass place on earth. Rich white college kids? yeah go to roxbury or southie and see what happens bud. Boston is the place where milkshakes are frappes, turn signals are blinkas, and water fountains are bubblers. absolutley no one goes on the duck tours. Besides the north end, almost everyone here is irish. any smart person would know to stay the fuck out of dorchester/roxbury/mattapan. no one calls it beantown. some people fake a boston accent but you can tell right away. we only have the accents when we yell. boston is the place where kids call their ma.."ma". it's area code is 617. boston one of the most chill cities to be in. papa gino's and dunkins are the best places to be for food. home of the hoodsie cup...and 99% of the people you meet dont have the boston accent. like i said, only when we're pissed off.


no one from boston calls it beantown.

Saint Paul, MN

QUOTE
Saint Paul is the capital of Minnesota and one of the Twin Cities, along with minneapolis. Just about everything the guy below said is true, except cottage grove sucks ass, and the gangs here are really not that bad - nowhere NEAR chicago's, at least.
Saint Paul is mostly middle-class neighborhoods, with the "ghettos" being mostly east of downtown. The "good" area to live in is west of downtown, but the "WEST side" is SOUTH across the stinky stoner-infested missisippi river, and a totally seperate city as far as i'm concerned. the streets make even less sense, as you can clearly see. The main part of St. Paul is cut through the middle by University Ave., which is filled with immigrant-friendly shops and surrounded by either ugly facotires or ugly poorer neighborhoods. South of university is nearly the opposite, Grand Avenue, which has just as many people but all of them are white and think they are cultured because they go to caribou coffee instead of starbucks. In the southwest is Highland, which is full of jewish people, and the only place in the entire city where hmongs (asians) are not at least a third of the population. The missisippi river is filthy and you will drown in it. at late night/early morning it is quite possibly the biggest stoner retreat in the entire midwest.
North of downtown is geniously called "north end", and it's not a very nice neighborhood either. it's only about a third white people, so if you are an immense whitey like most minnesotans, just stay out of there with your purchased fake ghettoness. Next to north end is Como, which is sort of nice, and next to that is St. Anthony, which is so white that it makes you go blind (but full of hippies too). that about sums it up.

QUOTE
Saint Paul is a city of about 275,000 in Minnesota. Saint Paul is one of the Twin Cities, the other city being Minneapolis. Saint Paul is the capital of Minnesota. This is one fucked up town. To start out with, the streets in Saint Paul make about as much sense as wiping before you poop. There are streets that do the damnest things ever. Another sad fact about Saint Paul is the dumpy West Seventh Neighborhood and the eastside of Saint Paul. These areas are shittier then the ghettos of Chicago. With lawns lavishly decorated with many appliances and cars, one cannot feel but urged to get the hell out of there. With these areas of scum and filth, you'd think Saint Paul is a total shithole. There are a few good areas in Saint Paul. The Summit Avenue neighborhood, surrounding the beautiful Saint Paul Cathedral, contains homes so large and eligant, it's astonishing. Not too far away is the beautiful Capital Building. Our Capital is known to be the best building in all 50 states. Then across the I-35E, I-94 is the semi-ugly downtown area, where condos sell for $500,000 minimum (dumbasses). Then the smelly Mississippi River and damn does it smell. Well that's Saint Paul, Minnesota. Fuck it all, I'm moving to Cottage Grove.

Portland, OR

QUOTE
A city in the northern part of Oregon, One of the only cool places in Oregon (unless you love nature) and one of the few cool places in the Northwest. It's a small city that has a good atmosphere and nice people. It ain't no mother fucking New York City but it still rules.
2. Portland, Maine
1. The City of Roses, PDX, Bridgetown, USA
2. Not as good as Portland, Oregon.

QUOTE
The nicest city In the United States. Lots to do for active Liberal minded outdoor folk. Laid back atomosphere. Much better than Vancouver BC or Seattle. Those two cities are rude and filled with thugs and drugs and annoying folk. Especially Vancouver, My HOME. I would like to relocate in Portland some day in the future.
Go Blazers, and then to the book store. Portland in a nutshell. Beatifull women as well.

QUOTE
Portland is the largest city in Oregon and is located in the
northwestern part of the state, directly across the Columbia River from Washington.

Portland is known for its liberal politics, its many parks, independent music, independent businesses and its proximity to the Columbia River Gorge, the Cascades (Mt. Hood in particular), and the Pacific coast. Its nicknames include the City of Roses, Bridgetown, Stumptown and PDX (after the city's airport).

The city is divided into "quadrants" (there are actually 5 sections) north and south by Burnside St. and east and west by the Willamette River. North Portland is located norht of downtown, but east of the river which curves westward at that point.

Some well-known musicians from Portland include the Dandy Warhols, the Decemberists, Lifesavas, Sleater-Kinney, the Mooney Suzuki, Elliott Smith, the Shins, Stars of Track and Field, and Pink Martini. Famous authors from Portland include Chuck Palhniuk, Beverly Cleary, Ursula K. Leguin and Katherine Dunne.

QUOTE
Think Seattle without the grunge.
Or New Jersey without the emo.
And you're halfway there.
Also has a blooming gay hustler scene and is home to many gutter punks. It's a cool place to live if you're a liberal. Probably not that great if you're conservative,but who gives a crap about them really? tongue.gif
Oh,and the guy who wrote Fight Club come from Portland,so it's GOTTA be cool.
"Portland: the diet NY." sniffed a New York hipster before being severely beaten by Portland punks in Exploited tees.

1. las vegas

American excess at its most excessive.

Everything that's bad about the United States all rolled into one location.

A colossal waste of energy, in the middle of nowhere.
Las Vegas should be seen at least once, if only to prove that it really does exist, and isn't the demented fantasy of a Hollywood set designer.


14. Las Vegas

A city in the middle of the desert, known for gambling, quickie weddings and intense heat. A city where you can get anything at any time of day or night. Native Las Vegans don't do well outside of the city, as they are used to having everything open 24/7.
A closed sign infuriates them.
Las Vegas is home to one of the west coast's biggest populations of meth users.


both of those are pretty spot on

Taylor, Michigan. Named Taylortucky because everybody sports mullets, drives rustangs, pick up trucks, wears wife beaters and drinks Old Milwaukee beer. Drop out rate in schools is high, most graduates and drop outs resort to drugs, and continue living with their parents.

Tucky was added at the end, because majority of the residents migrated from kentucky.

2. Wayne
140 up, 54 downlove ithate it

An upper-middle-class Northern New Jersey town of about 55,000 in Passaic County about 20 miles outside of New York City.
Lacking in any sort of downtown so "Club Preakness" (Preakness shopping center) is the place to be.
Full of Jews, Asians, and endless Catholics who forget that Protestants exist.
"Only Wayne would have a Hebrew YMCA."

"I can't wait to get the fuck out of Wayne."

3. Wayne
72 up, 41 downlove ithate it

Wayne is a typical wealthy suburban community in Passaic County, bordering Bergen County. Most of the town has money, but the rest of Wayne merely pretends with thirty year mortgages and leased luxury cars, or live in the trailer park in the flood section feeding off our parents tax money to attend Wayne schools. Wayne is over 90% white which makes ignorant people freak out when they see someone of color walking down the street, unless its someones house cleaner or landscaper. Why go to Paterson or Newark to get drugs when all you have to do is find a gathering of BMW's and Mercedes' full of 17 yr olds who are willing to dish it out locally. Wayne is a breeding ground for materialistic self-centered people, but we don't care wink.gif
"Let's go to Wayne and get some rich white girl punani"

"Honey, is that a black family moving into that house?"
"No, its just the neighbors landscapers..."
"Oh thank god...!"

Very true.


I found one about my old neighborhood. I pretty much still live there though.

1. Delray 33 up, 5 down
n.

1. A neighborhood in Southwest Detroit, located south of the Ambassador bridge between Fort street and the Detroit River near Zug Island. Delray formerly was a suburb of Detroit until it was annexed by the city in 1905. Soon after, it became a major industrial center surrounded by residential homes. As time progressed, many industrial jobs began to leave Southeast Michigan, and as a result, so did many of the residents of Delray. It has collapsed into a heavily impoverished, polluted area which many Detroit leaders have hoped to completely industrialize. The air in Delray is rated the most polluted in the entire state of Michigan. Many houses in Delray are assessed at near only $3,000-5000.
Delray is a lonely neighborhood.
