    Also called the Peach State and is one of the most splendid places in the country, Georgia and its pleasant spots can say that it is a cool place to be at. However, this place also has terrible places. If you wish to settle in this place permanently, you better be aware of all the unsafe spots first. Here are some spots in Georgia that are downright bad and are better not to travel into.

    Top 5: Moultrie

    This city, with a populace of 14,000+ people, has economic problems within. Discrimination against women is also actively happening in this city, which is downright rude and bad. 37.4% of female residents here board the poverty lines, as men earn more than women do. The median household income and house value are low, considering this place is stricken by poverty.

    Top 4: Forest Park

    Crimes here in Forest Park are as high as 90% and above, which is way beyond the national average. Either you or the residents have a 1 in 20 chance of being a victim of varied crimes. Terrifying, isn't it? One scary thing is that 11.3% of residents here are out of work. Lack of amenities, facilities, leisure spots, and more is additionally a concern which is why only a few people would willingly want to live here.

    Top 3: Clarkston

    This town had a reasonably good reputation back in the past. Good economy, high-rated schools, and such? This town's got it all, just in the past. But now, 10% of the residents here haven't got jobs, and schools currently are funded in low amounts. Crimes? This place also has it, though. 1 in 34 individuals here incorporates a chance of being victimized by crime perpetrators if we could turn back time, though.

    Top 2: Monroe

    Some time passed, the economy of this place bloomed nicely, but things drastically changed from people having quality jobs to 11% of the people there today not having decent work to do. Everything is down-bad here; the increasing crime rates and poor-performing schools also prove that this may not be a desirable place. The weather here is also the worst. There's not much to do here, so you better get this place off the locations that you'd want to travel into.

    Top 1: Swainsboro

    Probably, the worst disadvantages are found here in this town; that's why it ranked first in the worst places in Georgia. In a small location with only 7,000 residents, it's a surprise that 11% of them have no recent jobs. Those that do have work only have a low mean income which is terrible. This place is also almost in the middle of nowhere, which makes it distant from all the amenities and leisure spots because of its location. No one would want to live in an exceedingly lonely and opportunity-deprived town.

    Georgia is a place of beauty, but its beauty cannot hide its flaws. No matter how beautiful or pleasant a place is, there will always be the worst spots that we must avoid enjoying our life and traveling without worries.
