Review of Port Arthur, Texas


Armpit of the world
Star Rating - 1/5/2013
I moved here over a decade ago. This not a place to raise a family, nor accumulate a substantial savings, nor find entertainment. It is extremely expensive to live here with over the top taxes. It is dirty, it stinks, the beach is filthy, the roads are terrible, the interstate system is dangerous, police protection is non-existent. Whites are a minority and blacks let you know it. Restaurants are dull and tasteless unless you like jalapeno juice in everything. Everyday people go out of their way to be hateful for no apparent reason. It is big oil environment and none of the money stays in the local economy. Do yourself a big favor, don't even visit this hick town.
