Amarillo is a dump... I seriously hate that town. I believe the poverty levels there are very low... it smells awful there, and you aren't close to anything, literally out in the middle of nowhere.
They have positioned 2 slaughter farms on each end of town... so no matter which way the wind blows... you get an awful smell. Of all the places i would not want to live... Amarillo would be in my top 3 easily, if not my #1. My last job tried to transfer me out there and I quit.
