Worst (in order):
Phoenix, AZ area - What an ugly piece of shit of a city. Most of it is literally the same strip mall with the same massive chain stores/restaurants copy and pasted over and over and over. Have you people never heard of a concept called "local business"? I'm disgusted every time I go there. How many fucking Wal-Marts do you need in a two mile radius?
Jakarta, Indonesia - horrible traffic, tons of trash everywhere, and tons of people smoke in addition to breathing in the bad air pollution. Some nice malls and cultural sites though, such as Taman Mini.
Most of LA - What more is there to say? Most of LA is just plain ugly. It's also really hard to get around unless you have a car.
Cusco, Peru - This city has some cool architecture and amazing Incan historical sites, but the amount of stray dogs running around along with a general run down look to most buildings outside of the central touristy areas is really depressing. I've never seen more stray dogs in my entire life. People letting their kids piss/crap anywhere they want is also annoying.
Best:
Portland, OR - Greenest city in the US and it shows. It's beautiful, people are friendly, and it's relatively close to both a ski resort and the ocean. Probably the only major city I'd want to live in. Rains a lot though.
San Francisco, CA - Beautiful city with really interesting architecture and generally friendly people. If the weather were better in the summer and there weren't so many damn crazy homeless people, it would be truly awesome.
New York - Best city on earth to visit imo. It's incredibly easy to get around, Manhattan feels safe any time of the day or night, there's TONS to do any see, and the food is amazing. Theater scene is second to none. Wouldn't want to live there due to the cost though.
London - I love the history here and all the amazing old buildings and landmarks to visit.. Great theater scene, friendly people, and clean.
San Antonio, TX - Texas is kind of hit or miss, but San Antonio is pretty awesome. The River Walk is very nice and the city as a whole isn't too big. You can see a lot just by walking around.
The worst (not really cities) cities I've been to:
Medford, OR - I live 15 minutes from this piece of garbage. It's full of fat people, meth addicts, and dumbass teenagers who dress like it's still the mid 90s. Most people who live there are complete idiots. It's also as ugly as the people who live there. Why Ginger Rogers chose to retire there is beyond me.
Missoula, MT - It's basically like Medford but with tons of sleazy looking casinos everywhere.
