San Diego is illusive, Downtown is very clean and business driven, while south downtown (Petco Park area) is full of poverty and homeless, on the other side of balboa park you have lincoln park and logan ave, considered southeast san diego.. and that place is very ghetto.. other surrounding areas are ghetto also... El Cajon, Oceanside, Escondido, Chula Vista..
San Jose? lol i really doubt it... that is shark city. literally.
Honolulu has alot of poverty from what i hear.
Seattle
Salt Lake City
Minneapolis
Austin
Raleigh
Oklahoma City Orlando
Chorpus Christi
Tijuana should be up there to.
Defintiley agree with Orlando. There's really only 1 road here to avoid, everything else isn't bad....
Which 10 large cities do you think are the least ghetto, or most high class? Here are my picks:
1. San Diego
2. San Jose
3. Seattle
4. Portland
5. Salt Lake City
6. Minneapolis
7. Boston
8. Honolulu
9. Denver
10. Austin
You can take Minneapolis off that list. Just a few years ago people were calling it "Murderapolis". It's far from worst but definitely not top ten either.
Orlando??? I wouldnt call Orlando Compton, BUT I wouldnt call it LEAST ghetto either. Out of all the NICE American cities that should be on that list Orlnado??? Granted, Orlando is a nice looking well kept city. But alot of parts(Pine Hills, OBT, McKleren circle, Texas area, Holden Heights, Parramore) are somewhat ghetto.

I agree with this list for the most part, although Honolulu has a really bad meth problem, San Diego has issues with illegal immigration and gangs, and Boston definitely has some rough areas. My first question is, where's San Francisco? The worse thing they have going for them is lots and lots of homeless people, but then again, so does Denver, Portland, and Austin. SLC is definitely the least "ghetto" city in America, but I would never set foot in the state of Utah.
However, I do disagree with your inference that the least "ghetto" cities are therefore the most "high class" cities. IMHO the only cities on your list that I would consider to be "high class" are Seattle, Minneapolis, and Boston. When I think "high class," I usually think of cities like NYC, Chicago, DC, LA, and San Francisco.

Murderapolis? Come on now, the Twin Cities are so vanilla they're practically Canadian.

Lol,what?
Not trying to make SF seem "ghetto"(which it is in some parts) but you certainly don't want to lose yourself in Hunters Point or parts of Fillmore or The Mission and plenty of other neighborhoods.
I could tell you some stories about growing up in HP but I'm not trying to put too much negativity onto SF.
