Which city is most ridiculed in pop culture? (America, Boston, Chicago)

[Cleverfield]

Out of all of the cities in the US there are a handful that always seem to be the butt of jokes in popular culture, such as late-night monologues, sitcoms, and stand-up sets. There are some that have been mocked for a long time like, but some where the ridicule started more recently. Which city receives the most ridicule in pop-culture? Has it changed at all in recent years? Also, for those who live in cities that consistently get ridiculed, how do you feel about it when your city is the butt of jokes?

Probably Cleveland. I heard the "Mistake by the Lake" way too many times when Cleveland is brought up.

Chicago deserves a spot in the poll. My generation came up believing Chicago is as dangerous as a third world country “Chi-raq”

Boston also deserves a nod. My generation grew up calling Boston the most racist city in America

Outside of Fox News and other right-winged media sources, who really ridicules Chicago?

Cleveland is the absolute winner in the poll:

Surprised how many votes for Cleveland. Frankly I never hear anyone even mention Cleveland at all
