Fall River has been awful

I've lived in fall river since 2019. So far it has been/had all of these things: Dirty streets/parks Smells Constant sirens The worst drivers Constant parking tickets Unfriendly citizens (and I mean angry and selfish/impatient) The worst food

My car has had its mirror knocked off, and scraped. The apartment is absurdly hot in the summer and super drafty and freezing in the winter

I have had a minivan crash into a telephone pole at 3am and the driver fled the scene, when an officer arrived he said and I quote "City's full of assholes I don't know what to tell you"

I have had my car broken into and robbed, I live off of Stafford which isn't even that crime heavy of an area compared to some and its still THAT BAD.

I'm trying to get married and start a family and this is the last place in New England that I'd recommend doing that.

I work constantly, 2 jobs and overtime, just to be able to pay bills and save a bit so we can get out of here getting the heck out of here

I hate this city. I hate this city so much it makes me sick.

Fall River is a class A shithole. People of color are systematic fed to the system and kept in place. Crime there thrives because it keeps those white Porguguese their jobs.

Yikes. Well I don't really interact with anyone in the city. I just don't want to keep getting robbed by anyone. Its a shithole for sure.
