- tptacek 11y agoI used to live right next to Robbins. Robbins isn't the most pleasant place in Chicago, but it's nothing resembling Flint- bad either. It's more like a low-income Texas town. (It's also microscopic).
- logicalmind 11y agoI was born and raised in the town next to Robbins. My family still lives there. Robbins is the worst of many notorious, small, south-side suburbs (Markham, Harvey, Phoenix, etc.). It is next to an oil refinery. It has an abandoned incinerator. And plenty of other nasty corporations covering the place in pollutants. You will find plenty of burned down houses not closed off, etc. It just gets worse and worse: http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/December-2014/The-Trouble-with-Robbins/ http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/December-2014/The... Of course, as with any "no true scotsman" argument, it isn't as bad Flint in every way.
