Worst city in Iowa?

[Cfinnerty16]

I saw Cedar Rapids pop up on Twitter today & I was surprised.
For my money Fort Dodge, Council Bluffs, Keokuk, Burlington are all worse.

What other cities would you pick? Discuss

Iowa City.

Creston, keokuk, centerville, fort dodge….take your pick

Don't Marshalltown and Ottumwa belong in the discussion. I don't live in Iowa anymore so I follow this less than I used to.

Mason city is battling.

Iowa City.

The restaurants/food scene in Iowa City immediately makes me cross them off my list. Probably only second to Des Moines in locally owned restaurants

How do you define worst? There's a ton of little nothing towns with like 30 people in them that probably would suck to live in.

That diagram has Oregon 100% correct. Salem could burn down....being the state capital helps.

Marshalltown

Fort Dodge, Perry, Marshaltown. Cedar Rapids does in fact suck though. Just not as bad as Dodge

Klamath Falls or Madras

Well how about residents of said city threatening to assault your parents?

I don't think those would qualify as cities.

Seems like much of it depends on how you define "city" vs. "town" and if that makes a difference. CR definitely has a lot of issues, but putting as the worst seems like a stretch to me.

Good point, what's the cut off to be a city?

I don't think a Twitter response could have so perfectly embodied the spirit of Dirty Dodge as those.

 

[jcyclonee]

Wait. The worst city in Minnesota is Edina?

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

Denison, Dirty Dodge, Ottumua, Counciltucky, Marshaltown, and Musci-Vegas have to be on the list.

I know, I laughed pretty hard when he became the caricature of what people picture in Dirty Dodge
