Orange mound isn't the worst neighborhood in Memphis, not even close. The kids that live in Frayser, North Memphis, Whitehaven is who you need to pray for.
I included Whitehaven.
Its indigenous population calls it Blackhaven.

Going downhill fast. Getting way overrun with cultcha and has become a dangerous city.

Pretty rough places in Columbia. Live PD is making a killing of Richland County. I do like the Lexington and Chapin area. But give me Greenville. Probably wouldn’t have said that twenty years ago but Greenville is a great place.
Spartanburg still a shite hole.

I agree but I would put Charleston over Columbia. It has that historic feel and southern charm to it.

The worst shite hole in the state has to be Myrtle Beach.

I would swap the two Columbias. Columbia, MO is underrated

Yeah I grew up in Tennessee and I would say Chatt is one of my least favorite places. Pretty, but I'm good with a day trip.

I agree by Memphis standards it's "not that bad" when compared to Whitehaven/Coro and Raleigh, but it's still worse than Orange Mound and Orange Mound still ain't good lol.
I may be mistaken, but wasn't whitehaven named the most dangerous neighborhood in the US a couple years ago?

Fayetteville metro is great. As much as it pains me to say it, Bentonville is well on its way to becoming the best city in the metro area. It's like a nice college town, without the college.
Their restaurant scene has blown past Fayetteville in the past 5 years. They have better mountain biking within the city limits, and they have the art museum. Once the new Walmart HQ is built, and the Market District is built out with the new contemporary art museum, it will be a tie, at best.

I'd like to argue with that, but I can't. Fayetteville at least has some history. They can't replicate Old Main looming over the city, and they'll never have a Mt. Sequoyah. That said, the Crystal Bridges campus is phenomenal, and that entity alone started with an endowment of $800 million 8 year ago. Who knows what those funds are now.
The list of new things underway in Bentonville is very impressive. I hate their traffic, and I hate their powerlines, and most of the city is flat.
But they definitely have the $$$$ to do just about anything they want up there. Their town square is better, too.
