Please Read This For Your Own Good Before Visiting
I moved there about a year ago and if you look at the city without knowing anything about it, it looks beautiful and inviting. I never made the worst decision in my entire life. First off I am Autistic and tried to get into Community Mental Health (they denied me 4 times), no jobs were available. Through out the course of me being in this town I was carjacked at gunpoint once taken down to detroit and forced to give my car to this crackhead cause I would not buy/give him drugs or cooperate with his messed up plan. I had two cameras stolen from me out of the back of my car (that was before this incident) I had my 800 dollar computer stolen from my house cause I left the window unlocked, I had this crackhead he/she that I met while taking somone over to CMH steal my cell phone, playstation, about 200 dollars all because my supposed best friend trusted him, and then as a matter of respect (the way port huron works he later said) he said I could not grab my playstation and cell phone or snoop around her house to find it once I had a feeling she was going to take off with it. Finding good and honest people in this town is hard even if you go to legetimate places to meet friends. Literally almost everyone I met (about 30+ people from all around the city) was either on drugs, alchohol, or both. I had about 5 incidents where crackheads kind of moved themselves in and took over my apartment and would not leave. Even the poliece told me that there wasnt much they could do. I heard of about five suicides the last two weeks I was there alone. The last day I lived there someone got into an arguement on my front lawn with a knife and cut themselves. Then later that night my supposed friends taunted her and tryed to hurt her while she was crying on the street corner. My friend told her she was too young and too beautiful to live in port huron. The list goes on this is only about 20% of the bad things that happened to me in port huron. A lot of stuff was stolen from me at different times through out the course of a year that I lived there (including 8 Mp3 Players 3 Digital Cameras, 3 Tv's, 3 Bikes, 2 boom boxes, A comcast cable box, lots of clothes, About 3 pieces of furnature, over a thousand dollars, several refrigerators worth of food, an electronic razor, My wallet with just about everything in it, about 60 pills that I was prescribed to, a couple board games, and several headphones) I had two formal break ins one in broad daylight at 2:00 in the afternoon with me inside the house (ski maskes baseball bat crowbar they just took off the door and did not even care that my neighbors were watching and stole the tv comcast box and my "friends" x box) I just pretended to be asleep when this happened and the cops took 10 minutes to get there after a neighbor called 911 and then just pretended to investigate and never caught the guy or called me back or anything. People here are for the most part arragant, judgemental, non progressive, and basically all this town is is a bunch of predators trying to "hustle" eachother and prey on the few good people that have the misfortune of moving here. At least thats my experience by no means have I told anywhere near it all but I think you get the picture.
