Yeah but are all those cities safe to raise kids? I think not. :na: Score is even.

Rainbows are gay Ian... And so are you!

Heres a link to why my town rocks (not a Rick Roll link btw)

Drinking in the streets - check
Lots of hoes - check
Good change of nudity- check
Tons of history - check
Weirdest people you will ever meet- check
Laid back atmosphere- check


As far as raising kids goes, NO is not a great place in some areas, but that is why we have the towns north of the lake (where I live/work). I will say that they sure make that little town that Pudbasher is from sound nice... and boring too. I guess it takes all kinds, right!

I really enjoyed that commercial. Nice work!

A few of you guys take some amazing pictures, btw.

Here is Camden, NJ, one of the worst places in the US to raise a family.

So how many of these are you responsible for? :0

I'm really disappointed Camden didn't make the list. They were slacking off that year and let Newark pull ahead. I do think they made a good comeback in 2008 tho.

In all seriousness, here is my hometown:

http://www.munyon.net/mtevans/images..._skyline2b.jpg

I have better pix, but not on me. Attached is one from the mtns I took last year. Just a short drive away from town.



Now I live in PA. Here's a couple pix I found from the nearby town. Hard to get really sweeping pix as you are so buried in the trees.

BTW, that list is gay. It says Scranton is the best town in PA. Scranton is crap. VP Joe Biden is from Scranton, and even he says its crap. He actually moved to Wilmington, DE so he could leave Scranton. Yes, Wilmington is better than Scranton.

You know I get a little tired of being told I'm an insider. I come from Scranton, Pennsylvania! And that's as hard-scrabble a place as you're gonna find. I'll show you around some time and you'll see. It's a hellhole! An absolute jerkwater of a town! You couldn't stand to spend a weekend there. It is just an awful, awful sad place filled with sad, desperate people with no ambition! Nobody, and I mean nobody, but me, has ever come out of that place! It's a genetic cesspool! So don't be telling me that I'm part of the Washington elite, because I come from the absolute WORST place on Earth: Scranton, Pennsylvania! And Wilmington, Delaware is not much better.

Saint Petersburg Florida , some of the nicest beaches in the world. Where ele can you go fishing virtually anyday of the year ? Crime isn't to terrible here, we have shitty parts of town/ghettos like everyone else.
I have Beaches, Lakes, Rivers, Dozens of State Parks, Stadiums, tons of Culture and History all within an hours driving. Did I mention the Fishing ?
