lousy place - 2/27/2009

I've lived all over the world...two yrs in Europe, 8yrs in Thailand, also many cities in the USA. I lived in Troy for over 20yrs, and I finally got out of that hole. I live in the Upper Penninsula now and it is heaven compared to the cesspool down there. I drive five miles to work now and only have three stoplights to contend with. In troy I drove about the same distance to work and had a stoplight every mile, and the stoplights were all timed so I had to stop at each one. What can I say...the people sucked in Troy...the police dept sucked.....the govt. sucked, the schools sucked. I have no good memories of Troy. Good luck if your are moving there.[read more...]

It is a well run city that is financially healthy and offers good city services. The Police Department is one of the best in the metro area. The neighborhoods are a mix of working class people (mostly with the big three) and white collar employees within the auto industry.[read more...]
