Review of Evanston, Illinois


Evanston is horrible
Star Rating - 1/24/2013
I hate Evanston. I wish I never moved here. The residents are passive aggressive, snide assholes who can't pay attention while driving, stay in their lane, or read basic street signs. The parking police are overzealous and are a nightmare to deal with. Panhandlers are everywhere and make more money than I do. The city tries to nickel and dime you for every possible service while providing horrible service. The train stations are dilapidated and smelly. The grocery stores are disgustingly dirty and overpriced. People leave dog poop along the sidewalks. It is horrible and I dream about being able to leave.
