The rationale that placed these cities on the list is that “some places that exist that have less-than-stellar conditions for visiting, such as poverty, high crime rates, and unemployment” and included some are “just not all that exciting,” said Mind Your Dollars.

WHAT?

I demand a recount of facts. How in the world of ALL the cities in Alabama to pick for this “worst cities” list, they picked Decatur, Alabama?

Explain that to me.

Well, Mind Your Dollars noted about Decatur, Alabama is that it is home to the Point Mallard Water Park. Also, mentioned that it is “touted as the world’s first wave pool. However, since Alabama is along the Gulf Coast, you’d think people might want to visit actual waves instead.”

So … it gets on the list because it HAS a Water Park?

Dear Decatur, Alabama, we love and you shouldn’t be on this list. Period.
