Smile Modesto and Stockton ranked alongside the biggest cities in the country!!

America's Most Miserable Cities

http://www.forbes.com/2008/01/29/det...miserable.html

1. Detroit, MI
2. Stockton, CA
3. Flint, MI
4. New York, NY
5. Philadelphia, Pa
6. Chicago, IL
7. Los Angeles, CA
8. Modesto, CA
9. Charlotte, NC
10. Providence, RI

An way to go Stockton, if you work hard, maybe next year you'll bump Detroit for that top spot!

You know, Stockton sucks and all, but did they not go to Gary, IN?

Or anywhere in Ohio?

Hah thanks for the official list guys....It's abuzz here at work even though I work in Oakdale.........I'm proud to be a Modesto resident! Just depends what part of Modesto you're in. Downtown Modesto with the Gallo center is starting to be pretty nice.

I can see how Stockton is on there, #1 foreclosure/repo city in the country. I'm not sure how Modesto is on the list? Maybe bc Stanislaus Co. is in the top cities in the country per capita for stolen vehicles.
