Most Dangerous Region

So, my mom and I got to talking about dangerous areas to travel through. She's convinced that the Midwest states are too dangerous to hitch through versus what I said was more dangerous, the Southern states. It's all relative really but it got me thinking, what areas do the rest of you find dangerous or shady?
 
Interesting topic there my friend. Will be interesting to see what is input here!

The dirty souf has its share of mean people.

I did lose my wallet (threw it on the ground) as I was being accosted by three shitheadfucksticks in friendly Billings, Montana.
 
Kensington Philadelphia. Camden New Jersey. I only ended up in both of those places when I was trying to cop dope but getting out is fucking hard and scary. Slanging and busking was also a near impossibility them home bums redefine territorial....

Ia!

Memphis has some rough areas. west Memphis is pretty rough. North Little Rock. New Orleans. Houston, San Antonio, El Paso all have some pretty rough barrios.
 
I hope more travelers weigh in...since I'll be on the road myself at some point. I want to know what different places are like, also.
 
Billings, MT was surprisingly rough. LOTS of meth there. I also don't fuck with a lot of the tri-state area. Jersey City was gnarly at night.

I've also heard the border region between I-10 and the border is a pretty fucking sketchy zone in a lot of sections. I've never been down there, just hearsay.

In regards to north little rock, didnt personally have any encounters but while waiting on a train to kc, we saw at least a dozem cop cars within an hour in the middle of the night going back and forth across the bridges above and to the east of us. Idk what was happening but youd see a few head north then 5 would cut south right past them. It was kinda funny but definitely wouldnt recommend going to far north of the yard there. Cops in west memphis were cool and told us we were in a pretty crappy area but we hitched out within an hour of getting there

West Virginia is dangerous? Really. I felt that folks were kind of strange, but I never felt threatened. Everyone is just dirt poor..

The weather has no relevance to the thread btw

Thought I was in the worst state to hitch through thread. I had just been looking at that before this.
 
It seems every time I've hitched 59 through Mississippi, I get picked up by fucking loonies. Never really had much of a problem elsewhere.

New Orleans is definitely a clusterfuck. The first time I hitched, West Memphis was the first truck stop I ended up at; met some amazing people there who showed me the ropes. Haven't been there since then - how is it rough?
