Bombed Out, Broken and Depressing
While Texarkana, Texas can look relatively neat in places, the "Arkansas side" is another story. The majority of this community is infested with crime, homelessness, and unbelievable poverty. Many of the buildings on the main drag (9th St) are either shuttered or rotting on their foundations. Hardly any big chain businesses are here except a small number off the interstate. You have to "cross over" to get anything of value. It's a town where even waiting at a stop light can be nerve-wracking. Very post-apocalyptic. STAY AWAY!!!
