Rubbish Towns
I once went to Basildon. It was closed, I got chased by a bunch of knuckle-dragged yobs until I was lost in a maze of concrete alleyways and got food poisoning off pie. Tell us about the awful places you've visited or have your home.
Thanks to SpankyHanky for the suggestion

New Zealand
The country with loads of towns whose names serve as punchlines.
Foxton - "It's the Fox Town!" according to their own PR
Bulls - Where most of the buildings have a bull pun on them somewhere (eg. Style-a-BULL on a hairdresser's, Afford-a-BULL on a second hand store, etc.)
Masterton - Probably hassled more than any other city, although I don't know why
Rolleston - "Town of the Future" says the sign on the way in. They're mostly known for their prison. Hmmm.
Rangiora - They finally got a McDonald's the other month.
There's probably heaps more, but I'm not that well-travelled.

Masterton
I think Masterton gets hassle because it is in the Wairarapa...home of most P-head child murderers.

Hamilton
Wasn't there a tourism tagline that went something like "Hamilton: not as bad as you expect"?

Hamiltron
A city in NZ, an hour to the south, and 10 minutes into the future.
