The 10 DUMBEST CITIES in AMERICA
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 чер 2024
- In order to rank the dumbest cities in America, we had to look at which cities have the highest high school dropout rates as well as which cities have low college graduation rates.
This is a pretty good indication of where people live who don't have educational backgrounds.
Additionally, we measured how many libraries are in each city, as a ratio versus number of places to party.

Here's my entire series on USA rankings: ua-cam.com/play/PLq-_cmf3H6yrzgnMiXmDnm5zgbX4ogIG9.html
my guess is, what you are really measuring is the educational system, not raw IQ
Ignorance is not stupidity it is lack of knowledge
"Intelligence and knowledge are 2 different things, but they go hand in hand." - That's what I always say.
"Stupidity and Ignorance are 2 different things, but they go hand in hand."
C caymer Don't talk about Hispanics and work on improving blacks and we will do are part for are ethnicity or buddy. Also, blacks are least to graduate from high school compared to Hispanics. There is more to add but I'll leave my case at that as I guess you can tell the rest of your problems.
Man, Leonardo da Vinci must be dumb because he doesn't know anything about black holes..................................
.........Logic of people in this thread.
Big brain and high iq inherited genetically crave for knowledge , reading , exercise for the brain. So ignorance is in fact stupidity and low iq. And it has no connection with poverty in the US.
Trust me, I live in California. Most of them are idiots and dropout because everything in school is to hard and goes over their head. They don't bother trying to learn.
Going to college doesn't make you smart. NOT going to college doesn't make you dumb. But it doesn't help you hide it.
Traditional college is a literal complete waste of money and time.
The pacing is fucking horrible, everything is arguably overpriced, and there's not enough 1-1 tutoring to go around if for everyone if anyone needed it.
Literally, I'm currently learning my Spanish skills to become a translator/interpreter for just $6 a month completely online at my own pace, and based on my own rate, I'm learning more in a single month, than anyone will ever learn in an entire year of college Spanish classes.
See, the fucking problem is traditional classes, is that it is forced to cater to slow learning ppl. Not that there's anything wrong with that, not many ppl are actual literal geniuses like I am.
No, smart people go to college. And smarter ones do graduate. There are exceptions but generally is the case
@@James-mw7zv RIGHT. Let somebody say at an interview dumb people go to college.
EF ANDMK Congress in a class by itself- many unethical & criminal. DC & nearby MD = often overeducated & always smart.
@randall2020, everything I said is 100% true. I was never for one single moment being figurative or metaphorical in any of my statements. Standardized is QUITE LITERALLY A WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME FOR LITERAL GENIUSES LIKE ME.
THERE IS NOTHING, AND I MEAN NOTHING, THAT A STANDARD COLLEGE CAN OFFER IN A CLASSROOM, THAT I CAN'T INSTEAD ACQUIRE EITHER IN AN ONLINE CLASS, OR LEARN TEACHING MYSELF WITH, AGAIN, ONLINE ARTICLES I CAN READ TO LEARN THE CONTENT. HAVING TO SIT IN A CLASSROOM WITH UNDIVIDED ATTENTION AMONG UP TO 30 OTHER STRANGERS, WHERE THE PROFESSOR MAY OR MAY NOT BE SPEAKING OR TEACHING AT A PACE THAT IS ADEQUATE FOR MY GENIUS LEARNING ABILITY, IS LITERALLY WASTING MY MONEY AND TIME.
LITERALLY WHY SHOULD I PAY UP TO $6000 A YEAR, WHEN I CAN FUCKING LEARN IT FOR LITERALLY NO COST, AT HOME MYSELF?!? ONLY A FOOL WOULD DO THAT!
But I digress. For those who own well worth tutoring, yes, standardized classroom college with small class sizes is a good method.
Education and intelligence are not the same! 🤦♂️🏽
i know street smarts and hard work and creativity are more important :)
No but they definitely are interlinked and go hand in hand. Smart people chose to educate themselves be it in schools or by reading books on their spare time. Dumb people have neither the desire nor the will to educate themselves on anything - especially not something they haven't been exposed to. Guess what? An education both makes smarter people more smart and dumb people (albeit to a lesser degree) smarter.

Patriotic Conservative you are correct. Peeps confuse excellence with perfection, discipline with punishment, same thought process.
Patriotic Conservative it’s not what you know, it’s what you DO with what you know, you are what you DO, and doing NOTHING is doing something.
Some of the smartest people I've known never went to College.
ok 01- Well at least they’re not struggling financially like the actual “smart people” who are still paying down student loans & struggling to make purchases for their kids/families. I’d rather be that kind of smart or “not so smart” in your point of view.
Exactly I agree you can be smart you don't have to go to college and be smart but it's nice to go if you can afford it and if you're young and you have the smarts in the brains but unfortunately I don't my exchange got taken away from me I probably would have been married and had kids I like the way my life is now but there is some smart people out there I will agree with you there that never been to college but it's nice though if you can get a good education well that's the way the world is today how is going to college really going to matter very thing high-tech now being replaced by robots and computers and machines what a messed up world we live in
@ok 01 I don't think so but you got your opinion I got mine sometimes just because you have a college education don't mean squat you don't even get the field you're looking for because sometimes you don't get to find that field because the way the world is today and everything else how it's changing and not in a good way poor than be rich cuz you can be rich educated and not be happy
@@flavanone9884 that is not an excuse
Yeah? The people who designed that thing you’re typing on went to college.
Drop out = no college = no student loan = no debt = smart😎👌.
Drop out also means not employed.

Seattle does not really seem to be a smart city from what I see of it on the news. It appears to have lots of "smart" people doing dumb things.

Now that's funny. You can't spell questionnaire correctly. If English isn't your first language theres a thing called Google They will help you with your spelling.
.......who watches Jimmy Kimmel??? Only unAmurikans from other countries who mock, yet soak up western culture.
Love your humor and often accurate commentary. I could see myself doing this kind of thing.
Broken 🏠 homes and drug addictions are the main causes of dropout problems!! The family problems are causes for kids dropping out of 🏫 school also!!
Poverty. Poverty compels and enforces ugly compromises in life, and those compromises get one stuck in raw deals. Those who really rule us have no use for a large middle class -- just people trained to do miserable jobs, heavily in debt, and with no prospects.
Those who rule us live like sultans and try to treat the rest of us like livestock at best and vermin if we ever challenge them.
Yes, And we can thank the U.S. Govment for formulating the problem.
Hmm... Social science more generally disagrees with the claim that children's laziness is the main contribution to dropping out... As OP said, broken homes, abuse, lack of institutional connection and support, and toxic stress arising from poverty and unstable conditions most contribute to academic struggles and drop outs. Don't discount the struggles of marginalized communities by calling them lazy or unmotivated- the system is literally designed AGAINST them...
Shitty, underfunded schools paid for by property taxes are also a BIG problem.
@@darienmiller1032 We spend more per pupil than any other country but Norway. "Shitty" schools were formerly good schools before changing demographics lead to neighborhood crime. You can have the best schools but if the students vandalize and destroy them the good teachers leave for safer environs.
Very nice and informative videos!
Can you do most rural States/Cities?
Learned a lot. Look forward to see the 10 smartest cities. Thanks Nick.
How is shopping at Wal-Mart dumb? It by far has the best deals on food!
Great question and its profiling other people who shop there.
While you taxes pay for their employee's EBT and Medicaid because Walmart does not pay their employees a living wage.
@@calmgirlify
Yes that's true but there's a lot of good honest hard working people who work there.
You just proved his point.
@@calmgirlify Most other supermarkets ain't much better than walmart when it comes to wages, employee treatment and benefits.
Back in 2010, i used to work at Wal-Mart and I agree it's a terrible place to work. But instead of complaining and doing nothing; I got an education and am now in a much better situation! A job doesnt have to be a life sentence..
Excellent Show. Thank You!
Thanks for the heads up!
College doesnt make you smart. Sadly in a few places it may be just the opposite.
True for all universities except the STEM departments.
You are right about that. Some Degrees, like in performing arts, social science, history, gardening, are seen a worthless compared to major careers. People with little experience and education don't really know what their getting themselves into, exception with visions. Learning the hard way is the best way to go before investing in college.
I disagree
Particularly if you major in a useless degree with huge amounts of debt. You are better off working in fast food debt free which could give one the impetus to major in a STEM field.
Lets put it this way: There is a shortage of skilled trades in this country. People tend to thumb their noses at these types of professions. They want the corner office 9-5 and pull down a comfortable living. Personally, it would bore me to tears, plus make me fat and sedentary, but I digress. Why rack up a 100K-250K debt for an occupation that may or may not even be there when you graduate? And if it is, the wages are less than justifying the expense? Why not go to a trade school? The military? Learn a skill or skill set that you can take with you anywhere? Or perhaps start your own business in time using the experience and skills that you have accumulated? And pull down sometimes double or even triple what the average 4 year degree will earn? All while owing absolutely nothing to anyone, or very little. There is NOTHING wrong with sweat. There is nothing wrong with getting dirty. It washes off. To quote Morgan Freeman, "Some of the happiest people in the world go home smelling to high Heaven at the end of the day". So, you tell me who is smarter? The person who is in debt up to their butts and unemployed in their chosen "field"? Or the person who was willing to start at the beginning, work hard, show up on time and learn while eventually making more and owing less?
Going to technical schools is just as good for some. A degree in BS gets you what? I have a degree I never used.
What is your BS in? Lol BS pays more than a BA so maybe you chose a garbage major.
I have an Associate degree and gross over 90k.. trying to decide if getting my BS is worth getting just to have it.
Don't need a degree for BS. Everybody at work has plenty of BS.
Robin Shafer yeah college is a scam
It depends on what occupation you want to pursue, with some occupations you have a lower chance of getting a job without a degree, or even just an associates
Your Cover of the Different Strokes song on the Most Ghetto Cities is comedy gold , You have a new subscription
Hey cliff. There was a better version with music but it got taken down.
I’m Surprised not seeing New Mexico on this list, the education system is terrible.
Exactly I thought I'd see Albuquerque on here
@@Djrisk-wz5yc An obvious candidate if Nick Johnson didn't recognize Santa Ana as a real city instead of a suburb.
New Mexico ranks bottom of everything for some reason
One thing to consider when comparing national test scores is that the US data includes almost all school aged children including non English speaking, while a lot of other countries, especially Asian, only report test scores from college track upper level students. They are not testing the people way out in rural China.
San Antonio has a huge military presence, lots of people move in and out.
Do a Google or YT search: there are video interviews of random American people on the beach in California who do NOT know why the 4th of July is a holiday in the U.S.
This is incomprehensible to me; when I was in HS, you had to take 4 years of American History/Civics. Of course, there are a lot of people who lack any kind of intellectual curiosity-they forget just about everything they learned in school.
You should do a video most incarceration states?
@Dharma Dee Arkansas number one Texas number 2 Mississippi number three
@Dharma Dee I don't care what you think I want my State Arkansas to be number one reason why because of what they did to me 20 years ago when he sent me to prison for nothing
That would be Arkansas only misdemeanors get to do time in jail for nothing because they want the bed space and then a bitching word about oh we running out of disk space well that's easy released a misdemeanors most of them homeless people
He just kind of did....
Mississippi wins.
You took my favorite song "Sail Away" and turned it into "Fail Away"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 know you did NOT😂😂😂 You rock, keep it up Nick❤
Thanks April! What other songs are your faves?
@@NickJohnson OMG ok I'm an oddball but I like alot of 90s songs but one song that I listen to constantly is "Dance For You" by Beyonce💗💗💗💗💗
It is not Sail Away but Orinoco Flow by Enya.
Libraries tell you a lot about a community. Highly educated communities, also known as high income communiites (there is essentially no difference) tend to have excellent, well-funded libraries. Currently, because of COVID, I am in a rural community in Texas. When I arrived, I asked several people where the library was. The answer: "I don't know, I've never been to it." And believe me, it was obvious they hadn't. Not that they had missed anything. It was beyond pathetic. I knew several people in New York that had more books in their home than were in this "library". It was so poorly funded, it didn't even have a xerox machine. Meanwhile, the community had spent millions on a sports stadium that would rival some colleges (a place few of its high school students would ever wind up).
THIS! 🤯😓
Nick, thanks for making I learned a lot from it, now do one on where people are the nicest or politest.
Nick, you've got to be in my range - your song choices are giving you away!!
Probably same birth year 😘
@@NickJohnson I wouldn't be surprised! I was an 80s baby.
I don’t judge if you didn’t attend college, but not graduating from High School is inexcusable.
I live in LA and remember in 7th my math teacher told my parents the high school near my house has a high drop out rate
When you opened this video with a song I haven't heard regularly in 20+ Years, I was rolling in the lawn.
Thanks for the memories of good music Nick.
Sail Away was a long time ago.
great channel yours!!
As an economist who works in education I am skeptical of your methodology. Looking at dropouts & college attendance does tell us something, but it doesn't account for demographic/immigration factors, poverty/wealth effects, population (and density), school quality including private/charter options, or employment prospects for HS grads (and/or dropouts).
It's humorous.
Love your lists man
You are funny! I like your videos! Lol
It appears that poverty runs hand in hand with “stupidity”
Yeah and pollution!

@C caymer How about Detroit? Is it because it is majority black?
@@rosasmith9835
No.
It's because of the fact that for three generations, knowing you instructions in the automobile assembly plant's manual was all that one needed to make a good living.
The only good things about Fresno are
(1) no real winter even if it is at the same latitude as Bartlesville or Nashville
(2) proximity to Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks
(3) being within range of a weekend junket to San Francisco or Los Angeles (maybe San Diego or Santa Barbara, even if you are too poor to afford such)
negatives:
(1) no well-paying jobs that you could not do elsewhere
(2) California landlords
(3) California taxes
(4) California drivers
(5) California schools
(6) Texas summers
(7) no culture other than prolefeed
(8) highways built for forty years ago... which one can get away with in a state losing population like Michigan or Ohio, but California is gaining population
I just witnessed map abuse!!! How could u Nick?!? >:(

@@NickJohnson friend friends! I find it very hard to make friends as an adult and haven't had much luck in NJ/NY since most ppl still stick with their HS cliques. I've never had an issue in the dating arena but making actual platonic friends has been hard. I'm sure in some parts of the country its very easy
@@KingNeutral1 It gets harder as you get older. Older people already have an established group of friends & generally not seeking any new ones.
This was hilarious, especially the musical shorts. 😂
Hey Nick! Can you make the next video on states or cities with the worst drivers?
thats a good idea!
I’m sure Phoenix will be near the top.
There are people who never went to college who are not dumb. Some people are naturally smart and see school as boring and waste of time. Many of these people own their own businesses, and there are some people who have gone to college and aren't very smart at all.
@C caymer look at Baltimore is majority black
Mexicans are taking back their land!😁
The statistics show that most people that didn;t go to college struggle WAYYY more than those who did and make Wayyy less money over their lives. The stereotype of the successful college drop-out is an anomaly. Most high school grad only's and college drop outs wish they had more opportunities and get stuck in dead end low paying jobs--those are what stats say, not just hearsay or wishful thinking.
Allison Jae baloney the percentage of succeeding with our an education is minimal
College has plenty of attractions for smart people. Unskilled work has no such attraction.

If Seattle is so smart, why the horrible crime, drugs & homeless problem?
Because a lot of people in Seattle are transplants from the Bay Area, who are techies with degrees and they are pushing the natives out of their home city and state and making them turn to crime and drugs and homelessness because they can no longer afford what they used to.
@@amber6245 Those hippies from the bay area pushed out the natives their too.
I've never seen seattle in a worst crime stats list... Not even close actually... Homeless and drugs? What major city doesnt have that...
Tim Rasmussen, crime and drugs don't define how smart everybody in a city is
I'm going to guess it's a blue city. Let me look that up and see if my guess was right
Ahhh, imagine stumbling onto a Nick Johnson video about the States and being beautifully serenaded before it even starts. It's like noticing that your piece of lemon pie has whipped cream on top.
You are getting creative with your song parodies.
The best criteria for how dumb a city is probably would be how messed up the city itself is. Seattle would win, no contest. Most of the people I know that dropped out of high school left because the classes were too slow, the staff didn't do well with learning disabilities, or the school itself was constantly in chaos.
Who goes to libraries these days? We all have a super computer in our pockets!
I go to the library because nothing smells better than old paper.
Foregoing college for blue collar skills is one of the best things to do nowadays as blue collar skills have a higher employment rate and typically pay better than many positions that require college degree, such as a social worker
There are many people with college degrees that work at low paying jobs such as McDonald's or Starbucks. Many of them land similar employment opportunities that would have had without the college degree such as working in factories or positions or low skilled white collar jobs, such as a secretary.
Unless you choose the right degree that is useful economically, it's actually wise to avoid in the first place as you will be left paying for a degree that didn't pay off to make things worse.

This episode is full of surprises.
I am always full of surprises
My school district had a less than 3% drop out rate when I was in High school. Pretty happy about that.
I grew up in Connecticut in Fairfield County. There have always been a library, but libraries per capita? That's a measure for the 19th century. The dumbest cities are a controversial matter, as the reasons why (i.e. tests scores, graduation rates, etc.) will be debated forever. I think a good student supported by a good parent can triumph in any school system with the proper home encouragement and reading habits.
At one time, Places Rated rated Las Vegas badly for culture. Las Vegas had a population of one million, but only eight public libraries. That's like one library for a city of 125 thousand. Wanna bet that Lansing, Kalamazoo, and South Bend have multiple libraries? Maybe it doesn't take much book-learning to deal blackjack, change beds, sweep floors, or change cash for gambling chips.
Las Vegas has a non-professional Nevada Symphony Orchestra. Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and St. Louis are of similar size, even if they have been going through some rough times. They all have excellent symphony orchestras despite those cities having a combined population similar to that of Las Vegas.
You make good videos bro (;
I'm very grateful of my parents for not paying for my college (as I won't pay for my children's college either), because had they picked up the tab I would've wasted time and money choosing a track that would not have been a good fit, since my inclinations are different now than they were when I graduated high school. Now I work full time in a factory and am a renaissance man on my free time. Can't complain. I'll predict that not too far in the future we are going to have more experts who bypassed institutions of "higher learning" and the job market will readjust to it where going to a university for most things will be laughable. That is my hope at least.
College can be a waste!

I'm not surprised about Fresno. Or LA where I grew up and finally left for Spain after college back in 98!
So I was a high school dropout that practiced medicine for 30 years (quite well by the way). Not all dropouts are dumb, a segment are gifted but totally bored. Not a great parameter you are using to measure dumbness in my view.
Intelligence does not equal education, but they're interesting stats all the same. Thank god for spell check!
This why those who view these lists as gospel and the standard bearers, are indeed, well......DUMB! The only ones that are “dumber” than those who take these lists seriously, are those who compile and post them on UA-cam.
But getting a good education is far easier if one has the intelligence. College education may not have as high a pay-off as it used to have for the cost... but if people want to know how to live, which means not relying upon TV and video games for entertainment, they need some formal education beyond high school.
@@cameraman655 There are intelligent people in 'dumb' places... Dallas would not be in the list if it did not have a large ghetto-like area south of the Trinity River. This said, the North Side of Chicago, a city with its own schizophrenic divide, would seem to be more like Boston than like the South Side.
But even more, bad educational systems waste people. Good K-12 teachers can spot talent if they don't have 40 kids in one classroom. California is really bad at that because the tax system implies underfunded schools.
Autodidacticism or self-education is education without the guidance of masters or institutions. Generally, autodidacts are individuals who choose the subject they will study, their studying material, and the studying rhythm and time.
They are amoung us.

You are the Jay Kay of top 10 lists. Sad and negative themes are presented in such an upbeat and happy tune!
Think a state comparison might be more helpful or how many/what percentage of the states population falls into these categories. California's situation is particularly disturbing since they used to be a top ranked state in the 60s and 70s.
Maybe because of imigration I know my old school as dropped in ranking.
Damn I wasn’t expecting to be number 1 on this list
Thx for berating Enya song it's been bothering me for yrs.
