An example I would give would be Toledo, where it’s quite common to see people from Michigan or Ohio making fun of the city for laughs.

  1. If I had to choose only one, it would be Brockton but Lawrence is a close second.

  2. The 3 big Texas cities constantly dunk on each other, figuratively and literally, all three have basketball teams.

  3. Easy choice would be Detroit. Love it or hate it (and I love it!) it has a lot of influence over our state and a lot of folks don’t like that. That’s besides most older metro Detroit parents having a weird love/hate relationship with the city from growing up in or near the city.

    Other choice would be Howell. Picked on QUITE a bit for a past KKK affiliation.

  4. Miami, unless you’re from there..In which case you dunk on the whole state that isn’t Miami.

  5. Greeley. When the wind shifts and it smells like Greeley..

    There’s a big meat processing company there. So saying “it smells like Greeley” means it smells like manure. Also winds are coming from the east.

  6. Hagerstown- it’s kind of hick/crime/yuck city. And Potomac- rich out of touch snobs.

  7. In Texas, we talk a lot of shit about Waco up here in Dallas. Just is an incredibly boring drive-thru city with nothing going for it from our perspective lol

  8. For Indiana, people from Indianapolis shit on Gary, Muncie and Anderson a lot. Sometimes Terre Haute and Shelbyville, too

  9. Yakima… no one wants to go to Yakima, much less live there. If you think Seattle is the one with the drug problem, drive through Yakima.

  10. Louisville and Lexington bash everyone else, and everyone else bashes Louisville and Lexington.

  11. Anchorage or Wasilla. Anchorage because it’s trying really hard to be a big city but it’s dangerous and weird. Wasilla because it’s basically just snowmobile rednecks and moose.

  12. Illinois – Rockford or Springfield

    Kansas – Topeka, and occasionally Salina

  13. For New York there is no consensus. Most people from upstate NY hate New York City, most people from New York City can barely name a city upstate, so they hate on Staten Island.

    I think Binghamton is the worst city in NY. I’ve lived all over New York and in NYC.

  14. The entirety of RoVA (rest of Virginia) really hates the entirety of NoVA (northern Virginia), because they influence so much of the state’s politics despite essentially being more DC Lite than Virginia. The rest of Virginia seems to resent them quite a bit, while people up there think RoVA is a bunch of inbred, gun-crazy rednecks.

    But as far as northern Virginia is concerned… Woodbridge (or, as the locals call it, “Hoodbridge”)

  15. Oklahoma: Lawton, Muskogee
    Oregon: Salem, Gresham
    Washington: Tacoma, Yakima, Longview
    California: Anything along 99 in the Central Valley. (Looking at you Bakersfield)
    I’ve lived in these states, so that’s my opinion.
