Also I'll mention that I grew in Davenport, Iowa. I would call it a great place to raise a family. It's part of a four-city metro area that is sleepy by NYC standards but it's certainly alive.

All the people in this thread babbling / trolling about the shitty areas or shitty people they saw... I know this is 4chan and everyone focuses on the negative, and it's in vogue to claim everything is shit, blah blah blah, but if we have an actual honest discussion: there are good and bad areas everywhere. It depends on how you yourself choose to live, and who you choose to associate with. I lived 18 years in Iowa and it was an absolutely fine place to grow up. I had a good family, good friends, and a good life, and I was firmly middle-class. This does exist for people, you know.
