Newark is getting a little better but Camden is the worst city in the US. I remember a few years ago, outer lying towns were considering erecting a giant fence "Escape from NY" style around the city.
Ew! How about Trenton? Marcus Hook?
They all could give Chester a run for the money when it comes to ugliest and most depressing places in the U.S.
BTW I believe Chester also is oldest city in the U.S...and it looks like it.
Hey, don't knock my father's hometown. Newark still has a great neighborhood (Ironbound) and an excellent museum.
Chester has, well...what exactly does Chester have? The only city I have been to worse than Chester was Gary, Indiana.
