If you aren't naming SE Kansas towns, you have no place in this thread.

Also, Stockton or Washington or Baldwin City

I feel sorry for you guys.

I grew up in the burbs of Sedgwick Co. And although we grew up in crap, we were close to professional crap that was tolerable (Wichatitty). 

One things for sure is that the girlie count made up for a lot of things.

Baldwin City is adorable, FSD. You shut your mouth.

dear god, sorry you all have wasted so much of your day.  I couldn't post until just now.  Anywho:

JFC IT'S LARNED

does your 2nd worst town have two feedlots on either side of it, producing a fine dusting of crap smell no matter which direction the wind is blowing? 
What is missing in your oh so horrible, yet non-crap smell town? 

El Dorado, LOL (lived there. it smells, but not like crap) has a community college and an awesome lake. NOPE.
Rush Center is pud but doesn't smell like crap.  NICE TRY ASSHOLES
Those swedish towns have these cathedrals that are like a mile tall that people enjoy. They also don't smell like crap.  OUT.
Great Bend is called Great Bend because of the river that bends within the town.  It has a river.  Smells shitty sometimes... river auto-disqualifies.
Ark City is bad.  Blackface mayor guy from a few years ago, desperately tries to be in Oklahoma, yet no discernable crap smell. eff OFF THEN.
Dodge City.  Very tempting choice.  Pig crap smell is worse than cow crap.  Still, history and new cultures are fun, right?
lest we forget Kansas City Kansas is in Kansas.  Raceway/legends is basically Edwardsville, so eff off.  That said, no unavoidable crap smell.

Larned.  Nothing to see there.  Fort Larned is like other boring forts, except when you're done visiting you just go back to smelling crap all day in a boring crap-smell town.  Funfact: Larned has no funfacts because it is goddamn full of shattered dreams and constant crap smell.

I looked back at the discussion and here is how I'd divide the races. SEK stands alone, clearly, and the rest are separated by population. I felt it was important to separate suburbs from stand-alone towns, and I added Haysville because I felt south Wichita suburbs were underrepresented. The order within each division is my personal rankings; where my experience was limited I went with the most persuasive board opinion.

SEK Division
Galena 3,085
Girard 2,789
Baxter Springs 4,238
Chetopa 1,125
Parsons 10,500

"Big" City Division
Topeka 233,870
KCK 145,786

Less Big Division
Leavenworth 35,251
Junction City 23,353
Liberal 20,525
Emporia 24,916
Garden City 26,658
Dodge City 27,340
Hutchinson 42,080

Suburb Division
Lansing 11,265
Haysville 10,826

Mid Size Division
El Dorado 13,021
Ark City 12,415

Small Town Division
Horton (pop 1,776)
Larned (pop 4,054)
St Mary's (pop 2,627)
Osawatomie (pop 4,447)
Oakley (pop 2,045)
Wellsville (pop 1,857)

Village Division
Westmoreland (pop 778)
Nickerson (pop 1,070)
Burlingame (pop 934)

Very interesting approach. It reminds me of a developing tournament bracket. Is that where we're headed, Reboulet? If so, it's a bit unbalanced in numbers, so who will get the crucial first round byes? :dance:


Haysville easily wins the Sedgwick county title.

This town has been repeatedly hit by tornados but just won't die.

The majority of the houses are  tiny post WWII spec homes and most have dead cars in the yard or out in the street by the curb.

They had a doctor and his wife goto Federal prison for running a pill mill, and they've lost a Dairy Queen too.

Just recently somebody threw a dead body in the ditch across from the high school.

People from this town pause and wait for your laughable response when they tell you they're from there. 

If this place wasn't so close to Wichita it would hands down win the title

Holton addressed here, but I was primarily struck by the cousins Kyle Lee Tyler and Kyle James Tyler.

Did we overthink this entire thread? If the worst town in Kansas is Coffeyville, it would logically follow that the second-worst town is the one with a Coffeyville rivalry: Independence.

Googling their rivalry led me to this very depressing discussion of which town's Wal-Mart was better:

The over all picture in Indep. is very sad depressing dirty ruin down most important is the extreme cost of everything for no real reason gas, sales tax, property tax,food,nothing to show for the high cost of living here. It won't take much longer as the mass exodus has begun. The only ones left will be the ones who can't leave.
