This Oklahoma Town is Ranked in the Top 10 Trashiest Cities in the Nation
It's not a top 10 list you really want to be on that's for sure. A recent study was conducted to discover the trashiest towns in the Nation. Sadly there's a city in Oklahoma that's listed in the top 10 trashiest towns.
The study used several different factors and criteria in determining and ranking various U.S. cities and towns' degree of trashiness. Things like pollution, living conditions, infrastructure, and consumer satisfaction.

Of course, the population has a lot to do with this. Obviously, the more people you have in one area the more pollution, trash, and infrastructure erosion take place. That's just the way it works, not that it's an excuse.
So what town or city made the dreadful top 10 list of the Nation's trashiest cities? Believe it or not, it's Oklahoma City, OK. According to the study released by LawnStarter.com OKC ranks at #9 in the U.S.

I never considered Oklahoma city to be trashy, but to be fair I've rarely ventured past all the usual stops and touristy places to visit. So maybe there are some areas of OKC that belong on this top 10 list of trashy towns.
