Review of Binghamton, New York


hick town, trashy people
Star Rating - 1/22/2018
Where to start? Highest taxes outside of New York city, astronomical rents and what do you get? Chemical spills, lead in the water, terrible schools, crime, systemic racism, police brutality, government corruption, and the worst healthcare in the country. The people are fat, mean, white and always angry - Trump voters. The students are trashy and middle class partiers. The only decent hard working people in this town are immigrants, and they are unfortunately ostracized and terrified by the rest of this racist, uneducated trashy town.

The other problem with your review is that you're complaining about people being white, but at the same time complaining about racists.

These issues are not specific to Binghamton. This is everywhere. Also, don't be the very problem you're complaining about. You yourself are expressing your own racism/prejudice. The economy here is at least trying to grow, but things unfortunately take time. I have lived here, as well as other states. Education in this country is a problem everywhere. I'm a teacher, and I can attest to this. Also, please understand that the taxes are quite high here, but the grass is not always greener. I've also lived in the state of FL, where taxes are basically non-existent, but the cost of living/housing is SO high, that you can barely survive.
