Sparks, Fallon, Winnemucca, Lovelock, Elko, Battle Mountain, Ely, Austin or any other town in the state of Nevada, aside from maybe Mesquite.
Add any town in South Central and Eastern Wyoming along I-80 to that list, including, but not limited to Laramie, Cheyenne, Casper, Rawlins, Wamsutter and Rock Springs. I realize Casper isn't on I-80, but it still fits the general trend set by Rawlins as Armpit of an otherwise very nice state.
East St. Louis is a real dive as well. A friend of mine had his broken into and gutted while parked directly in front of the Gateway to the West.
Oh, and Shasta Lake City, while it has a nice sounding name and is only 8 miles from my current hometown, is one of the least desirable places to live in America.
