There are places all over this country that are “like third world countries”. Ghettos everywhere in every major city and some of the small towns in the south are completely ghetto.
My wife and I were talking tonight and can’t understand why people with the means to leave continue to live in those little southern towns that have died a slow death. I know two men who retired from the military and moved back to our hometown, a place that I won’t even visit. It’s depressing.
Another place that looks like a third world country in America is the white house. We have a king.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Ensley. Midfield. Bessemer....
OTOH a lot of small Southern towns are great places to live. Maybe the interstate passed them by. Or a 4 lane state hwy. Lands cheap, houses cheap, you can find your own little piece of paradise for not much money. Not good if you have kids though, as they’ll have to go to Co. schools that could be miles away.
