Granted, I think most seriously negative opinions about places are silly. There's a saying about bad weather. That weather can never be miserable. It can only be itself. The miserable thing is the mental attitude some people pick to have about it. I happen to think that's a good and widely missed point.And the same has to go for places. A given spot in the U.S. doesn't have to be exclusively rainbows for everyone. Picking our opinions about places is obviously personal. So, someone can pick to be miserable about a place. But the place itself wasn't sufficient for that emotion, nor did it make it inevitable. And there's truth in pointing it out.
