East St. Louis

this is a disgusting place that is full of crime, drugs, dirty strip clubs and prostitution. I’m ashamed that it is part of my home state, illiois, and needs to be bulldozed to the ground.

Do NOT drive through at night.. you will get harassed

It is indeed an armpit of a place. This is where the dirty strip clubs can be found, among other things with which you don’t want to get involved. It surprises/appauls me how many people think this is part of St. Louis.

This city is the armpit of the USA. It needs to be buldozzed and planted over with trees and forgotten. I used to attend races at nearby Gateway Int Raceway but stopped going as I no longer wanted to see ESTL in route to Gateway.

Just drove through it!
