A town east of Roseville and right next to Folsom Lake. This is a really nice town with nice people too. The people who live here do make A LOT of money but are not snobs who undermine everyone else. People here still say thank you and please apposed to many other places. Granite Bay is home to many of Northern California's local celebrities as well.
If I was rich, I would live in Granite Bay.

A nice little town that's relatively new and pretty misunderstood. A lot of people think that all the rich snobs who get whatever they want live in Granite Bay. That's not true. If you actually get to know the people living there, they are like any other nice people that you know. There are only the certain few that give off the impression that Granite Bay is a snobby uptight place.
I love Granite Bay.
It's so nice and safe.
Not filled with rich snobs, contrary to public opinion.

A town located in Washington state, where there are meth tweakers who steal shit from everyone and rednecks with their crappy Toyota pickups who go up Green mountain to get drunk, shoot guns and play beer pong.

One of the only remaining factory towns on the east side of the Mississippi from St. Louis. Polluted, check. Significant amount of dumbasses, check. Some racist bastards, check. Some awesome human beings, check. My hometown, CHECKMATE!!!
I read the other entries and felt compelled to hold up Granite City as an example of decline in the USA. The town is stratified big time. The haves and the have nots are segregated physically. If you have a good job you're fine, and if you don't you're screwed. There is also a major disparity in levels of education, and a hell of a lot of people that seem to always want to fight.
My family is from Lincoln Place, a declining part of the western edge of the city. It was home to a diverse immigrant community of Armenians, Hungarians, Macedonians, Croatians, and Mexicans, clustered around American Steel. The hood was always hardscrabble, but the old timers had a lot of pride. The ethnic folks' kids improved their station and mainly moved out. The neighborhood is still home to the Mexican Honarary Commission, and several of my family members.
The town used to have three mills going gangbusters, now there's one big one and a much smaller one. The decline in the steel industry led to a population crash from 40K in the late seventies to 31K now. Much of the population is of advanced age.
If the GC Steel ever closes, the town will simply fall into the toilet.
Granite City is on the brink.

Granite City is a steel mill town about 6 miles east of St.Louis, Missouri. It's polluted for sure, just try driving past the steel mill on Edwardsville Road at night, and see and smell it. It also has a housing project that is being rebuilt, who knows why it's being rebuilt, it's been a headache to the town and the police department for years. Most people are blue-collar workers, average people, but rather tough, "suburban rednecks" you could say. Many people work at US steel/formerly Granite City steel, or drive to St.Louis to work. The west side and downtown has it's problems with drugs, and crime.
John:"You know Mike from Granite City?" Paul: "Yeah, he's a good guy, steel mill worker, kind of a blue-collar man"

A smelly ass steel town with polluted air and a high school with way too much drama in it. Possibly the most boring town on Earth because there is nothing to do on a Friday night.
I hate Granite City! Wanna move to Israel?
