So I saw this list in a Facebook feed and video from esenotes.com. Washington State towns like Shelton and Aberdeen make the list of the top worst places to live in Washington.

According to the video, Yakima again takes the #1 spot of the worst place to live in Washington State.

I'll defend Yakima a little bit, Yakima does have some great areas to live like West Valley, and some great local eateries like Miner's.

The bummer is that Yakima also has three times the crime rate as a typical town of the same size. The three times I've lived in Yakima, my car was broken into multiple times.
