Poppy is on a distinguished road
Thumbs down Lufkin is a cesspool

I have to be honest. I have lived here for ony a year and the reason I am on citydata is to check out other towns because I want out of Lufkin. My dad grew up in the area out near Zavalla and I visited my grandparents here as a kid often enough to want to come here. Now after living here with my own family for a year I can't wait to leave.
The people here so fit the stereotype of the ignorant redneck hick that you would think Jeff Foxworthy got all of his material in Lufkin. These women here think a gathered, three tiered, cammo print skirt is a fashion statement.
The people here a so behind the times when it comes to computers that most do not have them. Few businesses here have websites. The people here are under-educated. Many are poor. Too much of the housing is little more than a shack with plumbing, or a rusted singlewide. The better newer housing is overpriced for the area and the incomes that can be earned here.
Employment is a joke. Jobs are only easy to find if you are a practicing Baptist. The pay is low, benefits are so bad they are an insult. Employers in this state will violate any and all labor laws they can get away with. The cost of living is only a very small fraction less than it was in our hometown in north-central California.
These ignorant morons smoke like they have never even heard of the surgeon general, so the air is putrid and the ground littered with cigarett butts. The food is mostly deep fried and coated in batter. Fresh vegetables and fruits are poor quality, half rotten and over priced. Forget decent Chinese food.
Crime is a serious issue here. There is way too much violent crime, much higher than where I came here from. I have heard of more murders, sexual assults, pedophilia, robbery, violence and rage here in one year than I ever did in my home town. The sex offenders registery is frightening to look at. The black population is huge and while there are many who know how to behave like decent human beings far too many of them just need to be locked up and the key thrown into the earth's core.
I can't wait to get out of hicksville.
