Englewood, likely Chicago's worst neighborhood. It doesn't look as bad as a lot of these other spots but I doubt any of those ever registered a murder rate of over 400/100,000. Also Derrick Rose's home I believe.
Im not good at posting links but if you go to google maps some bad streets in Colorado Springs are Drennan Road, Fountain Blvd., Hancock Road, Astrozen Blvd., Jet Wing Drive, and Airport Road.
We focus very often on urban blight in this country. Moving to a predominately rural state, and living near the Mexican border has exposed me to a different kind of poverty. This street view photo does not convey the true squalor.
There is more similarity in a neighborhood such as this one to a shanty area of Mexico than there is to the United States. Anthony New Mexico has only 7,000 people. I'd say half of those people live under the USA poverty line. There are several active gangs in small villages such as these down the Rio Grande Valley. Gang inroads run deep in rural areas - Las Cruces Sun-News
