Passing Through Gary Indiana



Advertise


Gary Indiana is quite a miserable place to drive through. After many years at the top of the list, Gary was rated the tenth most dangerous city in the United States. That may be an improvement but it's still a very scary place. We recently tried to bypass Chicago on a road trip and wound up in part of Gary, Indiana. We avoided the supposed bad part of Gary, Indiana. But this good part was much worse than any nightmare you'd care to be in.

Gary's decline was brought on by drugs, crime, and layoffs at the steel plants where although it continues to be a major steel producer, it is only at a very low level compared to past days.

We survived but it's a town worth avoiding at the expense of a few extra miles on your trip.
