Brockton is notorious among Massachusetts residents as being a terrible place full of crime. Here it is.

For this edition of dashboard tours, I wanted to check out the absolute worst place in the state of Massachusetts that I could find. It wasn’t hard to figure it out - every ranking website claims the worst place in the state is Brockton, a smallish city about 20 miles south of Boston. So that’s where I would head. It was a really pretty day in early spring, putting a shine on a community that usually doesn’t...well shine. It was Tuesday, March 23, 2021 at 11 am.

On the drive, we’ll be taking Main Street for a while and then ducking into a few neighborhoods. This is the exact route we’ll be taking.

If you ask people from Brockton what it’s like to live there, they will tell you about all the crime and shootings and drug use, poverty, gangs, prostitution and depravation. This is certainly not a good place to live, as you’ll see. If you’re curious, though, a home here would set you back about $360k on average. That’s a very telling sign of how crazy the real estate market has become. Can you imagine? $360k to live in a place like this?

By the way, when I go into hoods like this, I put this magnet on my car so that I look like I’m supposed to be there. People usually just wave me through this way.

Here’s the rest of the worst place in the state of Massachusetts.
