My brother in law was a truck driver, he said pretty much the same thing about N.Y.C., that many truckers would not go there

That is true, and a lot of them don't like Chicago either, low bridges everywhere.

Made a one-time mistake of leaving the trailer door unlocked during an office furniture delivery in Compton, CA, back in the 80’s. We came to find most of the merchandise small enough to carry off was gone and the bums had stolen all the freight blankets.
