    You'd probably been robbed in Baltimore if you stopped.
    Be sure to wear your purse strap around your neck.

    Can't really think of any US cities I've been in that I would dread going back to, but I've heard nothing but bad stuff about Detroit. Not many cities in Mexico/outside of the US I would visit either.

    Baltimore wasn't too great the more I think about it. Probably don't have much desire to go back there again.

    Honestly, what would you do in Detroit, tourist-wise? Maybe visit the Ford plant? I honestly do not know.

    Detroit has the country's biggest car cruise in the summer. That's the only time I've been to Detroit. Pretty boring...

    Detroit
    Puerto Vallarta - I hear it's quite dangerous
    Gary Indiana

    Pripyat, Urkraine - I think that would actually be cool to visit.

    Go Flyers! I never really ventured into the city during my 4 years there as there really was no reason to. I thought Cincinnati was really nice. Atleast the area around Great American and The Jungle.

    Pyongyang looks miserable, but for an American Tourist it is not dangerous AT ALL. You would actually be treated real well as they try to slant all their "flourishing nation" crapola propaganda at you.

    In a lot of countries it's the US government that people don't like not so much the US people. Obviously that's dependent upon where you go. There is a huge disconnect between governments and the people they represent all over the world.

    I'd rather be wearing an American Flag T-shirt blasting Foreigner through a boombox in Pyongyang than ever set foot in St Louis ever again.

    Also, I've been to Detroit a few times. It's actually pretty damn awesome so long as you stay in Windsor, Canada. It's poor as heck but there is plenty of good times to be had.

    Mexico City is the safest city in Mexico from my observation. Really enjoyed it. Surprisingly cosmopolitan city.
