Cleveland at #1. I'm actually surprised, I thought Detroit would take the top spot.

Ohio still has 3 in the top 20 and Canton falls out completely.

I wasn't trolling, I just found it interesting that Ohio had 4 in the top 20. Looks like Cali as a whole is rather miserable...the state of foreclosure.

About 20 min south, but still an area on the major decline.

Surprised you havent attributed its decline to you moving away from the area yet. I'm sure that's your explanation.

No, that's not the reason, but thank you for the concern. It actually saddens me to see the area where I grew up turn to total shit in a relatively short amount of time.

I've always wondered that. More clicks, more cash?

More clicks = more ad monies = more monies to send certified letters and buy cocaine.

But I agree. Forbes and Bleacher Report suck royal with their "slideshows"

Reps. I am proud of you for actually using your brain. Had no idea you were capable of this.

California looks like (according to that site) a pretty shitty place to live.
