I think Jacksboro is a neat little town. Several good places to eat, Fort Richardson is a nice place to spend the day camping or just enjoying the history, the bike trail out to the park by the lakes, and their baseball/softball fields received a great upgrade last year. They also did a great job on the square where the old buildings had fallen down. Now it is atrium like with plants walk way and places to sit. What is it you don't like about it?

Jacksboro is definetly not the worst.... and Pelican Bay should be in the top 5

It's not little (pop. 55K) but somewhere Port Arthur has to come into this conversation. Definitely a sh*thole if there ever was one!

I will admit , some of the worst buildings and residences fell in and were removed in the last few years. I used to tell the Kids when we drove thru , we were going to move there. They Cried. Mo

Rotan, TX is another bad one. My family's old ranch was there. Loved the town for sentimental reasons but there are some sketchy people there.
