Hahaha! I live in Middletown and our river stinks like s**t
Let's see....
Crime is through the roof, drug use levels here are ridiculous, poor utilization of government programs, horrid condition of basically all roads, buildings and homes, zero sense of community pride.
The good news is, you apparently can get all the free Narcan you could ever possibly use.
Basically the whole town is disgusting. Everything to most of the people that live here, to the places to get a job. In addition our "crown jewel of Middletown" AK Steel has made the town absolutely filthy and has zero environmental conscious whatsoever. The rivers, lakes and streams here are all highly polluted, even the air quality is terrible. On the plus side if you own a home here AK will send you a check every year for the environmental damage that they have caused to your home and cars.
No doubt there are a lot of really decent people here. Unfortunately they are terribly outnumbered by tweakers, criminals and other sorts of undesirable tenants.
Not to mention this is the most closed minded, racist, IGNORANT group of citizens I've ever encountered.
Only possible saving grace would be a direct nuclear strike or a meteor hitting right square in the middle of town.
Live did a song called "Sh*t Towne" back in the 90's. Definitely the theme song for the official a*s crack of SW Ohio.
Just dirty..... everything about it.
The schools have fights everyday.
