Review of St. Louis, Missouri


St.louis is the biggest Ghetto I've ever seen
Star Rating - 5/25/2006
I guess there was a reason why St.louis was brought up on Chevy Chases "National Lampoon Vacation" when his rims were stolen in ST.louis. Ive seen it all, from LA to Miami, this city looks like Beirut, and no, its not just EAST ST.LOUIS. This has got to be one of the most depleted cities in this country. No wonder the crime rate is so high! You have to live in the suburbs about an hours drive away to remove yourself from the blighted element that has taken St.Louis by it's neck. Just look at population growth for the cityover the last 50 years, its being abandoned!!!!!! The city is up to par with Detroit, Camden, and Paterson, N.J. Charge it off like a bad debt! Its sad to see this city exists in our country!
