LawnStarter measured each city across four categories: pollution, which measures things like air quality and greenhouse gas emissions; living conditions, like the percentage of homes containing mold or rats; infrastructure, which measures waste output and regulations; and consumer satisfaction, or the percentage of residents who find the city dirty.

I can’t see how Los Angeles was left off of the top five - its streets are lined with homeless tents with trash strewn everywhere.

Detroit and cities in New Jersey are not really a surprise. But San Bernadino? California has gone downhill fast.

What about San Francisco with human feces all over the place. There’s even an online map showing where it is.

............I’ve lived in Texas all my life. I used to enjoy going to Houston and have been there at least 200 times in my life.

With that said, I agree with you. Every Texan I know agrees with both of us and we all try very hard to never have to go there anymore.

Abbott needs to grab some sack and put pressure on Houston to clean up it’s crooked politics! He put the arm on Austin successfully. He can do it with Houston too.

Columbus, OH is one of the CLEANEST? DaFuq? I am permanently scarred by having seen Columbus.

While driving through Ohio, I thought I’d stop by the Ohio State Fairgrounds. I never imagined that there was such poverty in America, and I’ve been through the South Bronx, Newark, Anacostia (Washington DC), Roxbury (Boston), etc. A LOT.

I saw a cat that had been struck in the road flipping and flailing. I found the next person I could and told him, concerned for the suffering and the cat and the family. He had three teeth. He said, “thanks, that’ll be good food.” He wasn’t kidding. He started to drive his pickup over there. I told the next guy I found, and I think it was HIS cat. He went chasing the first guy to brawl him.

There were kids panhandling on the street corner. Could’n’t’ve been 8 years old.

You can cop a squat anywhere you want and drop a deuce, then update the map in real time using your smartphone.
