wiffleball 4,640 Posted June 26, 2019 https://www.foxbusiness.com/features/most-undervalued-us-cities-2019 Agree with Pitts. I think it's a cool town. Many of these other places - no thanks. Listing Chicago is worthless. Need to list a neighborHood. Honestly surprised the south is so underrated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,642 Posted June 26, 2019 Don't know what Providence is doing on that list. Unless they needed a white city so it wasn't called racist. And I like how they say "undervalued" instead of shithole for the majority of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lil' Webtoed Porkbutt 155 Posted June 26, 2019 There was a commercial a while back and vacationing in China. In it pandas were everywhere. They were in the marketplace and taking spin classes. Now a common joke between my girl and I is "They (whatever we are talking about) are everywhere. Like pandas in China." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted June 28, 2019 You guys ever come to Charleston let me know. I live there and can show you guys around. This city is really nice and you’d guys would love the golf here. Another undervalued city is Asheville, NC. It’s like a mountainous Austin, Tx. If you love the outdoors, food, music, art, etc then you’d love it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn’t ever live there but it was nice to visit. And I agree with you on Charleston. Don’t know why it made the list cause everyone I’ve talked to that’s visited down here loves it. We have quite a bit of tourism down here. Gonna be busy next year when PGA comes down to Kiawah. Highly recommend you coming down for it cause Kiawah is fantastic and you’d love it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My inlaws had a place there for a long time, on the 3rd green of one of the courses (don't remember which but not the Ocean Course). Been there a bunch of times. My daughter was baptized there 6 weeks after 9/11. Never did play the Ocean Course tho; the year we had planned to do it I tore the meniscus in my knee the week before. Charleston was typically a day trip as part of the visit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 994 Posted June 30, 2019 Soooo when they say undervalued. I assume they mean you can get piece of property in one of these war torn shitholes for way less than you could in an area surrounded by ....sayyyy....all white people in the Hamptons.

sderk 1,040 Posted June 30, 2019 New Jersey has been known for being the arm pit of America for quite a long time now. Newark, is the dirty fat sweat and smell that comes out of that armpit. Kind of reminds me of what newbie is to this site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The realtors and chamber of commerce there surely appreciate the kind words of their senator and former mayor. I stopped for gas in Newark a few years ago on my way back to the airport. I pulled into the station and instantly my spidey sense told me something wasn't safe. I thought "fock it, suck it up and let's get this over with." I got out of the car and the $#@! pump wouldn't take my credit card. After about 30 seconds I remembered that NJ is back in the ice ages where they require employees to pump gas. Which was instantly followed by the question of where are the $#@! employees? I saw a few guys I presume were drugged out and/or homeless. I decided expensive rental car gas was a better option than death, got back into my car, and squealed tires the fock out of there. As a PSA, I learned that there is a gas station at the rental car exit which is outside of the combat zone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,204 Posted June 30, 2019 NJ is a bit of an enigma. Much of the state is very beautiful; tree-lined, tons of beaches. But the areas around the major cities in other states (Camden near Philly, Newark near NYC) are piles of dung. It is like they are happy being the biotches of those other cities.
