ITT: Cities a lot of people think are great but you think suck/are overrated

[TheOnanist]

Las Vegas fuking reaks of donkey balls. I've lived here going on 7 years, and it sucks mane. people are dumb republican idiots, lowest hs grad rate, girls are dumb sloots and just want to strip for easy money - and or superficial as fuk.

brb to have a good time, pack up with your boys and go for bottle service for 1k = attract sloots. passive aggressive sloots turning down guys left and right with tight ass dresses on but yet get wet to go to chipendales for chads.

brb - tools everywhere, douchbags everywhere., lets get drunk bro! we in las vegas bro! yeehaww vegas bro!

I grew up in vegas and actually miss the fuk out of it. was in the green valley/henderson (by sunset station) area though so everything was really new and nice

[P3nguin]

9 days....?.... in March???

Bruh.... u dun goofed.

He made a thread and there 3 pages of people telling him to go in summer But he elected to save cash.

Also we getting massive snow storms as im sure you noticed

[Theanine]

Vancouver and Victoria, BC. Boring, cliquey, liberal chitholes. Full of hipsters and feminists with purple hair and combat boots, rains 9 months a year, geezers everywhere, durka durka and ching chong in Vancouver, overpriced as hell, bad traffic, dbags, unfriendly as can be.

Beautiful nature, but that doesn't make up for everything else, chit culture and chit people. Fuking hate liberal cities and I used to consider myself liberal.

i stay over there too actually but a bit closer to unlv. green valley/henderson is clean though, but las vegas wears and tears on your soul if you frequently dabble in it's activities. it's trash.

haha I don't doubt it. I moved to Pittsburgh when I was 16 so a lot of the chit vegas is known for wasnt part of my experience

[Norrov]

Crowded compared to what? I go there fairly often and it's nowhere near other cities.

I expect NYC and Chicago to be crowded. I've lived in massive cities before and I'm not a fan.

Denver is a mess compared to what it used to be, and the housing is getting stupid expensive for **** houses.

I'm mostly butt hurt over the I70 traffic and being to poor to live in Frisco tho. Ha

[sbbulldog09]

Atlanta is the GOAT city.

[ExistentialBrah]

Nyc, place is a giant dumpster and smells like it too.

[rjones416]

vancouver is ok but its overrated.

brb rain like 83.5% of the time
brb chinese people everywhere
brb so small you end up seeing the same people everywhere you go
brb expensive

[KingRexxxy]

Montreal. I'm here now on a 9 day "vacation"... I should've only spent 3 days here.

I'm bored out of my mind wishing I was back home in Denver srs

lol, what a retard. Who takes a vacation to Montreal in the winter?

[shoelaces]

New York for me. I live less than 20 minutes outside of it so maybe I'm biased. I used to be a fan when I'd wander in once every couple months to go to my favorite restaurant, but now that I previously had a job there for several months and I'm also of the age where my friends always want to go in to go out to bars, I realize it's just a massive, expensive, overcrowded, disgusting dump, filled with tons of gross people and garbage everywhere. I get the whole allure of pretty much everything being available to you, but I can't stand it.

I have an offer to relocate to NYC. The office is in mid town and I have been researching housing nearby and I don't think I can afford living there. It is pretty insane. I realized that it will expensive before looking around but it is borderline absurd. How do the middle class even afford to live there?

nj. Studios go for $1100-$1200 in Union city/ Weehawen

They go for $1500-$1800 in Jersey City

I want to be close to work. I hate long commutes. Did it for years and I can't stand doing it anymore. I will keep looking around but if I can't find an affordable place near midtown I will probably just decline the offer. Gonna go and visit for a few days just to scope out the area. I was in NYC a few years back during a layover and did not enjoy it as much as I thought I would. I still have an open mind though.

Don't live in Manhattan, and just commute the 45 minute from Queens or Brooklyn

Edit: just read above. The commute by train really isn't that bad brah. I do it everyday. I live in woodside Queens and it take about 40 minutes to get to my job in times square

[DefCrazy]

Just got back from a 3 day trip in San Fran.

The hills were ridiculous, homeless people everywhere, the price of living(just fuking lol), it's cold af and in general, just too many people. And the fuking traffic! Jesus! I didn't even know traffic could be that bad. Sitting on one road for 1 hour+?! It was 8:30pm! The city wasn't even really nice. It was borderline grimy.

I don't see the appeal of big cities. Maybe for vacation but to live? No thanks. San Francisco can fuk right off.

LOL

If you are bored in Montreal, it says more about yourself than the city itself to be honest.

Isn't the whole appeal of being in new york living, working and playing in manhattan?

Check edit brah, and no not if you can't afford it. There's plenty of spots in other boroughs that are relatively close that you'll get a much better deal and you'll also be able to chill in manhattan however often as you'd like, for after work happy hours, partying etc. That's why there's trains/buses going everywhere 24/7.

it's only a 35-40 minute commute. The transportation in NYC is good so you can live miles away and still have a decent commute

You're right. Didn't even think of it this way. What are some residential areas I should be looking at? At first I was looking at apartments near central park and quickly realized I can't afford to live there. I will be living alone so I am looking for a 1 bedroom that is not crazy expensive.

[Tough92]

Every city that isn't NY/Newark/Miami.

Are you saying that city's suck?


I hope so bc Newark has highest crime rate in the tristate lmao

Some good areas to live in (or that I wouldn't mind living in) are

Queens: Astoria, Woodside, Elmhurst, Rego Park, Forest Hills, Woodhaven
All of these areas are mixed demographics (Asian, Hispanic, Indian, white etc...) but they are not dangerous at all, and you can find a nice spacious studio for a relatively low price.

Even though I'm from Brooklyn, I don't travel around there. I like Queens much better.

Bensonhurst, Sheepshead Bay, Bay Ridge, Park Slope, Midwood, Gravesend are all nice places. Right by the Brooklyn Bridge is where all the Hipsters live, so if that's your thing, places like Williamsburg and Bushwick are where you want to look. The further East you go in Brooklyn, is generally the worse it gets so be careful. STAY AWAY from Bedstuy, Brownsville, East New York, and Crown Heights.

Hope this helps

[Hesher]

Holy fukc yes, it's like the worst city I've ever been in and I've been in a lot of cities. Id rather live in Trenton New Jersey than sf.

Reps off RC

Can't say I disagree. Trenton > SF

[mypetmeatball]

Are you living in Jersey City or Hoboken?

I'm about to move to NJ. NY is definitely a bit too crowded/noisy to live in. People hate on Jersey but it's safe and clean (at least in downtown jersey city/Hoboken/Weehawken) and has a sick view of NYC if you live near the river.

Jersey City > *

Hoboken sucks

[CheekyPhaggot]

Imperial city

Can't go more than 20 feet without being called criminal scum

lost it.

[SilverSpork]

NYC, too many East coast dickheads, smells like chit. Would never live there.

[Trickmyster18]

The entire state of Florida outside of Destin. No offense, Florida miscers.

Lived in Destin for 6 years. Spend more than a week there and you will be bored out of your mind. Also 90 percent of the people that live there are straight white trash.

[gixxer0.6g]

All cities with over 500k people suck.

[gwem32170191]

Portland a thousand times over

[BuralBrah]

Paris. god that place sucked dick
