      Evansville is worse than Florida, it’s Alabama bad. Just one huge trailer park and no college graduates in sight. Traditionally it’s rated the most unhealthy city in the United States to live. Forty percent of the population is morbidly obese. Absolutely horrible place to live.

      To add to it Evansville is one of the most dangerous cities in the United States for crime, unemployment is the highest in Indiana and one of the highest in the Midwest, wages are extremely low, and it has heavily polluted air, land, and water.

        This guy is just making shit up. I grew up across the river from Evansville. Have lived in many other places around the states and world. I go back to visit once a year. It’s a pretty nice city. Nice little art and music scene.

        Above national median for college graduates.

        Not in the top ten unhealthiest cities.

        Not in top 100 most obese.

        Obviously not dangerous.

        Has a bit of an unemployment problem but not worst in state and certainly not worst in the Midwest.

        Did Evansville fuck your wife or something, dude?

          Yeah, I’m scratching my head. I have family near there and I have no idea what they’re talking about. Maybe they’re thinking of Gary?

                You’re making a lot of effort to shittify an average American City. I couldn’t care less about Evansville. I just take issue with misinformation, my guy.

          How to which part? Evansville has been a notorious hub of awful since the 70s. It’s population decreases 3-6% every ten years because of how bad it is there.

              You could do a graduate capstone course on why Evansville is so bad.

              Air is heavily pollutioned by coal power planets, corruption in the local and state government, farming, and heavy metal industries.

              The city is downstream from Pittsburgh on the Ohio River and it gets all its drinking water from the River and dumps its sewage back in the same river.

              Ground Pollution is from the farming communities and more government corruption…

              Crime / drug use comes from the low education rates, low wages, and declining population. Meth and Fentanyl is huge in Evansville.

              The obesity comes from the lack of outdoor activities. Drinking until you pass out is the most common activity in the region. There are so many unhealthy restaurants in the city that add to it. The city has no walkability and is nothing but Stroads with no sidewalks. It’s extremely cold in the winter and extremely hot in the summer also keeping people inside.

              It really is the perfect example of a dying city.

                We used to call it Midwasted. Spent most the time trying to figure out how to forget everything.

              Nobody to make it better. Some places just become pits of despair. Anyone who isn’t trapped there probably gave up on it to run as far as possible. I know I would.

                I grew up a little over an hour west of it, I certainly ran to a major city as soon as I was able to get out of southern Illinois and know many that did/do the same

                Unfortunately I know that area well and we left as quickly as possible for the West. I have family there and only go back twice a decade.

                  This guy has blown more camels than anyone in history. He also a steals guys grandmother’s parkinson’s medication and enjoys pineapple on pizza.

                  Pretty easy to (maybe) make shit up on the internet.

      That would be Kokomo Indiana. They even have the accent despite many being born there and rarely if ever leaving the city.
