These days every other website is doing rankings.

And website ranking opinions are like certain anatomical parts – everybody has one or two of them.

So this website called Road Snacks decides to rank cities in New York State and using their yardstick – Niagara Falls is the third worst place to live in New York State.

So what?

They don’t live here. Maybe they haven’t even spent a day here. It doesn’t mean too much, but here is what they wrote anyway:

“Niagara Falls is the third most dangerous place in the state of New York. We’re not talking about falling over the cliffs. And yes, pick pocketers preying on unsuspecting tourists is probably a high number of those crimes. But the fact remains, that when you’re within Niagara Falls city limits, you have a 1 in 17 chance of being robbed or having something you own vandalized.

Does that sound like a fun place to live? Did you know Niagara Falls also has the 4th highest unemployment rate in the state at 8.1%? Or that homes are only valued at $57,000?

Say what you want about cheap living. The fact is, homes are priced by demand, and there’s little demand to live in Niagara Falls.

Here are the top 10 worst place according to the website: roadsnacks:

They write: “After analyzing 500 of the state’s most populous cities (over 5,000 people), we came up with this list as the 10 worst places to live in the state of New York”
