Almost every state has a meme “well this sure beats <my state> roads” Heard it in Illinois. Heard it in Indiana. Heard it in Michigan. Everyone thinks their state roads are terrible. The truth is, some little side roads don’t get much love in all states. We honestly built up too much roads, and it would bankrupt all states to care for all of these roads. The answer is to drop some roads, and covert others to gravel or dirt. But doing this is political suicide, so no one does this… so we just have some little roads and little bridges in real bad shape.
