Milwaukee is one of the most underrated cities in America, but it’s really not that great. With all of the art, food, and so much beer, we’re not sure why anyone would actually choose to move here. This is why Milwaukee is the worst, and you should avoid moving here at all costs.

  1. The weather changes every five minutes.

  1. It’s cold about 10 months of the year.

  1. Construction season is every season.

Jeramey Jannene / Flickr Don’t expect to get anywhere on time. You’re bound to hit traffic wherever you go in Milwaukee.

  1. You’re sure to get stuck in traffic every game day.

  1. Getting up for work might be hard after Thirsty Thursday.

  1. Unfortunately, you will get addicted to cheese…

  1. And don’t even get us started on brats…

David Wright / Flickr We have brats that just don’t compare to anywhere. It’s the worst.

  1. And the frozen custard?

Ben Husmann / Flickr It’s just too delicious.

  1. Looking at that lake all day sure is rough.

  1. In the summer, you have to pick what event to go to every single day.

Okay, maybe this was mostly sarcasm. Milwaukeeans know Milwaukee is actually the best city to live in, and if others aren’t in on the joke, there’s more beer for us!

What do you think? Why should everyone definitely avoid MKE?
