But that's one member. We're generally talking about cities who are constantly taking beatings from a handful of people at a time.

Houston
Atlanta
New Orleans
Detroit

And I've noticed something. All four of these examples have one major thing in common. Everybody gets one guess.

I'm surprised at the number of people who dislike Chicago.
I love Chicago. I just hate to live there.
An occasional jab at those who defend it beyond reason is just fun.

Phoenix, no one can spell their name, everyone makes fun of there puny skyline of a city of that stature. They make comments about the crime, heat, and dryness.
That being said, I think Phoenix, along with Dallas, St.Louis, Fort Worth, San Antonio, Albuquerque, and San Diego are undoubtedly cities which are Neglected for their statures. San Diego, San Antonio, and Dallas are largely Ignored and Over shadowed by other cities for cities of their stature.

I also see a lot of anti-Charlotte sentiment. I just threw Philly in there for fun.
you need to add las vegas to your poll. they get picked on more than anybody.

Most picked on cities? Phoenix, Detroit and L.A. come to mind instantly. Other ones I see get picked on are Pittsburgh, Chicago, Miami, NYC, D.C.
