Oklahoma Towns Most Hated by Fellow Oklahomans

If I were to ask you, "What Oklahoma town would you absolutely never live and why?" odds are you could list at least one.

cough-cough-Muskogee-cough-cough

I think every Oklahoman shares this type of opinion in common with the rest.

My dad always warned us kids about even visiting Lawton... "You'll get shot!" He's still uncomfortable with me living here. Mom never cared for Altus. My sister always talked trash on Tulsa when she lived in OKC...until she moved there--now she can't see at all why people stay in OKC.

Same/same for my friends. My buddy from Apache can't see why anyone would live in Elgin, something about the struggles of moving 17,000 people twice a day down a single two-lane road. Another friend from Cache says the same thing about Elgin.

Haters gonna hate.

Personally, I'll never live in a big metro again. When it takes three hours of driving each day just to go to work, you're paying to go to work. OKC & Tulsa are irritating but Dallas and Houston were by far the worst.

When it comes to hating on another town for one reason or another, there's no shortage of opinions. Here are the top Oklahoma towns your fellow Oklahomans loathe.

It's a top 12 list you don't want to be on. Unfortunately, these 12 towns and cities have been selected as some of the worst and by worst I mean trashiest and sleaziest in the Sooner State. These dirty dozen were selected by Google using factors like crime, violence, drug abuse, unemployment, income rates, and even the overall appearance of the town or city. It factored in things like rundown or abandoned properties and vehicles when ranking how trashy or sleazy a town or city is. Scroll through the photo gallery below.
