My picks: Evansville, IN, Ohio, New Jersey, Maryland, California, Florida, and tops is…Kentucky (yes, it’s that awful, not “that friendly”, Louisville is worst, and the women have snotty attitudes.)

Texas and Alabama are the friendliest, in that order, just as a side note.

OK first thing is first I was living with my father for about 3 months after completeing the Job Corps program. My father has basicually mental and physically abused me my entire life. One day I was fixing some chicken and french fries and the grease make a little popping noise and it woke my father up he than got mad and threw a coffee cup at me striking me in the head which caused a cut that had to be closed up by staples. I went down to the police station right after it happened and told them and of course they put him in jail. Anyways I was going to College at the time which I am still going and I now am homeless living in my car. I went to my grandmas which is my dads mother which she lives in Owensboro, Ky and asked her and see if I could stay with her for awhile until I got back on my feet and she basicually said no. She said that she was so set in her ways that she just could’nt and my Uncle and Aunt was sitting there to and they didnt help either I believe they are mad at me

because I called the law on my dad which is my grandmas son, uncles borther and aunts brother, I have been living in my car off and on for about 3 months. Churches have been helping me out alittle which I am greatful for but they put me in a hotel for one night and something to eat for a night and of course I am greatful. Well than I started to go on a drinking benge and got a P.I. in Owensboro, Ky and thats a fine I have to pay and then about a week later I went to Evansville In, and was pissing out in the parking lot thought no one was watching and the cops roll up and take me to jail for public ****** and a P.I. stayed in jail for about 5 hours and they let me out. I know you are woundering how I got the money to drink and I got it from raking leaves. Then I went to the police station a couple days later to get a voucher to get a place to stay and to eat and gave them my ID they ran my name and it said I had a suspended licence in Indiana but I was in kentucky and my kentuckys is ok

Bree asked:


Have you lived or do you currently live in Evansville, IN? I’m interested in this area due to the lower cost of living and the laid-back aspect I’m told about but I have a few questions: I’ve heard the air really smells bad, is this true? Are their any really bad parts of town I should look out for? How are the real estate taxes? Thanks so much for all the serious answers and if you would be willing to talk to me about Evansville, please leave your email and we’ll chat.

In my personal experience, these places have all been pretty bad (in no particular order):

1. Dayton, Ohio
2. Southern Indiana (Evansville particularly, although Corydon is pretty nice)
3. Kentucky (the entire state, especially Louisville, Lawrenceburg, and Frankfort. However, far western KY is pretty nice.) This actually is my least favorite of all, they have It’s that friendly on their license plates, but it’s a hoax.
4. Washington, DC and suburban areas
5. Orlando, FL
6. Northern New Jersey
7. NYC (in parts, but all in all it’s not too bad)

If you live in any of these places, feel free to agree or disagree. Why do you feel the way you do? And, of course, if there are other place(s) that come to mind, list those. Would you ever go back to these place(s)?

Personally, I LIKE Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee (especially west of Knoxville,) Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas.
