Top 7 Dirtiest Cities in the USA

207

1Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore takes the top position on this list of the Dirtiest Cities in the USA.

The city has struggled with illegal dumping, litter, pests, and waste problems in some neighborhoods. Trash can also enter storm drains and eventually reach local waterways, creating wider environmental concerns. Vacant properties in certain districts can make illegal dumping harder to control. However, Baltimore should not be judged only by these problems. The Inner Harbor, historic neighborhoods, museums, and waterfront areas attract many visitors, and community groups regularly organize projects to improve local streets and public spaces.
