Ohio.
Fuck no. Three people got shot across the street from where I was at - I didn’t stick around long enough to find out if any of them lived through that ordeal or not.
Sorry if that’s depressing - it’s life in America, sadly. The opioid epidemic + pandemic seems to have hit that state pretty hard too.
Edit: I am sure that not all areas in that state are that way - the major cities have some issues though, especially for someone who doesn’t know the area, like where it’s safe to go or not go.
Ohio seems to be considered the “most American” state by certain statisticians. It’s often a testing ground for major fast food groups to try out their new menu ideas for a national release. If life in Ohio is harsh then it’s a good indicator of how things are like throughout the rest of the country.
