toonkee Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I'm just relieved Las Vegas was actually on the list but it is quite sobering to see the league that it is in. There's a lot of work to be done in this town for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RoscoesDad Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 They really gotta take the Nard off the Ventura/TO market. Take that crap hole out of the equation and it's probably top 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSUTOP25 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Makes me question the validity of a list that doesn't have Cambridge, MA in the top 10. Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA at #55 is highly suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of work to be done in this town for sure. We don't need to be high on the list. You can make a minimum of $50,000 per year working on The Strip doing a job that requires a high school diploma. Las Vegas may be the best city in the world to live in if your highest level of education is high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poorest area of town, Dorchester, is still a pretty vibrant community where I have no issue walking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
