This was a great read Niffla 
I'd really love to visit that part of the country because it looks so beautiful - but Wyoming has a quarter of the population of the city I live in .
Haha, thanks, blues. Yes there are absolutely incredible parts of Wyoming. Rock Springs obviously just wasn't one of them. In fact to this day, the northwest corner of Wyoming that encompasses the town of Jackson Hole, Grand Teton National Park, and Yellowstone National Park -- is still my favorite place on earth by miles. It's absolutely epic on a grand scale up there and I'd highly advise/suggest getting up there to see it in person at least once in your life.

it's the oldest botanical garden in north america and it's beautiful and they sell all kinds of seeds and do cool art classes and stuff and a lot of people get married there.

...it just so happens to be quaintly tucked away... in the hood. 
i just meant trashy in terms of the smells at it. the smells of garbage, aka trash. trash is a word of endless applications
does look pretty cool tho

Haha that's where I moved to Montana from. I don't mind Hoquiam too much but Aberdeen is a shit hole. Lived there for like 2 years.
I got trapped there in some flop house after eating fistfuls of azures with someone. Had no idea what I was in for. Black mold everywhere, broken stove, overflowing toilet and tub, it stunk like cat pee but there was no cat. I never thought "my cool pad" meant "absolute squalor". I had to drive tripping at 4am to get a hotel and scrub myself clean. Spent the rest of the trip in the hot tub and pool. That place fucking sucks. There's sick junkies all over the place. I wish I could go around Hoquiam/Aberdeen to get to my picking parks but no. Sadly I'll be passing through in a few weeks.

What the hell were you doing in Opa-Locka?
There's gotta be a halfway decent story behind this.
I went to vocational school in Hollywood, and had a collegaue back then that lived in one of the government housing building in OPL. He'd usually bring some good blow to class if one were to ask.
Unfortunately the one time I asked, he told me I'd have to drive him to his place. Crazy fucking place...I vividly remember it was a Tuesday because he told me before he got out of the car that the cops were gonna start doing the weekly "sweeps" in a bit so we had to get out of there quick.
____________
As for worst place I've been to overall,
Jackson, MS.
Literally was told by locals to never move there. They were self-declaring it a shit hole which was the surprising part.
Just looked like everyone and every structure in that town had given up on life.

Did you frequent that Kurt Cobain park? It's a haven for heroin and crackheads now and more of a marketplace.

I lived like a block away from it. I never saw much of that. I've definitely dranken quite a few 40s at that Park though.
Never a dull moment wandering around Aberdeen at 2 am. What a shit hole but it's definitely got its own character.

It's like the last place anyone visiting WA should go. The park holds the aura and depression of drug addiction and lives up to the Cobain legacy I guess. A lot more cocaine available than I would have thought. I hated that I bolted mid trip but dude was 22 getting up on a "16" year old I just got my stuff in the car and bailed. I felt guilty the whole drive that I was driving and tripping but got to the safest closest place. No one was around. Skeeze people man. And it's not like, there's anything redeeming to the town. Everyone looks like they want to kill themselves.

Sounds like Aberdeen. 
I never saw any coke there. All about that meth. Got some pretty fire shit in that town. Where I'm at in Montana this dope is weak.

....at least it lives up to it's name??
idk, I still feel like the worst places in washington are probably much better than the worst places in PA/NY/NJ/MD/and co. - and some places in the mid west llke outside St. Louis, and Detroit, and sections of Chicago(though I do love Chicago and I think compared to DC, Baltimore, and Philly, it's crime issues are easily on par if not a bit overblown and concentrated)
Chester, PA, Camden, NJ, and East St. Louis are probably some of the worst areas in all of the industrialized nations, easily, for instance.

Agreed. The Northeast and mid Atlantic have some pretty terrible places. Maine is even horrible in some spots.

You know, oddly enough I've never been to Maine despite it not being that far away.
I mainly picture everyone eating lobster, talking in that stephen king accent, and being blue collar - never really thought of it having bad areas - but the wilderness up there is pretty fierce I hear.

Appalachia in general can be kinda a scary place. My parents have a lake house way out in the middle of nowhere in the blue ridges and honestly driving out there in the middle of no where makes me very uneasy when I'm driving at night. Particularly because I'm mostly unprepared it I break down out there. I think my cell gets signal most of the ride so it's not nearly as remote as other areas out there...but man, at night..

LA. Never been to the nice parts, but I have been to the shitty parts, and it's total shit. It's so much worse than any other large city I've ever been to.
The bad parts of Oakland. Most of Oakland is nice. The bad parts are just about as bad as you can possibly imagine. I made a point to drive through all the worst parts with a friend of mine one time. Really shitty, almost scary place.
Denver. Went to the suburbs around it. Shitty place: fucked up dented vehicles with broken windows, people doing weird shit at 2 AM, just an all around weird fucked up place. I've heard the nice parts of it are very nice (much like Oakland I imagine).
Seattle. Not anywhere near as bad as any of those three, but just had a generally shitty vibe with generally shitty annoying people. Everyone was just kind of a dick for no reason, and the city was beautiful but crappy.
Best city I've been to (even though you didn't ask): Portland by far.
