Did not like Midwest. Gillette seemed skeezy. Lost Springs was small.
Midwest is basically a village and what did you not like about Gillette? The clean roads, nice neighborhoods, the American flags flying, the pronghorn and mule deer bouncing around, the working class people, the lack of homeless encampments?

Clear as can be, just windy! I’m off!May want to check the road conditions before you head in.
How can anyone live in Medicine Bow? Horrible wind all of the time and local cop will pull you over for going 3-5 miles over the speed limit while you are parking your vehicle at the only motel/restaurant. I'm pretty sure if you had drank one beer in the last 24 hours he would ask you to do a sobriety test.

You definitely nailed a few sh*Tholes on your map. I feel like I’ve always slept through that big chunk on the East. I just assumed everything east of I25 was still Kansas
it basically is.
i think the people that live out there actually wish it just was kansas.

Just curious, but what are everyone's top criteria for a place being bad? for me I'd say crime rate, population density, unemployment rate, taxes, cost of living. Unfortunately, drugs are so prevalent anymore they are everywhere.
Slightly tangential but hands down the worst place I stayed in was on my way to hunt in Arizona. I stopped in Oklahoma just outside Oklahoma City. The lobby was closed and had to check in through a barred window, there were maybe 2 or three other cars there. Sink in the room was held up with duct tape, the smoke detector was gone and a walmart bag stuffed in the hole and there was so much black mold in the shower you'd need a putty knife to get it off. I slept with one eye open while spooning my 300wm.
Honorable mention goes to the Travelodge in Carlisle, Pa. We slept on top of the bed, fully clothed and pistol handy. It was so dirty my wife declined to use the shower.

Not Wyoming but I stayed in the Warbonnet Inn in Browning, Montana once. mtmuley

out of all these awful locales, there are certainly a handful where i would choose rawlins instead.

Spent a sleepless night in La-junta Colorado last November
I don’t know what was worse the stink from the town sewage plant or all the meth heads standing outside the hotel all night
the stockyard seemed like the best place in town

I seem to recall a policewoman getting busted stealing from there a few years back
