Recently, a Reddit thread asked users which city in their state was "dunked on" the most.

Dunked on: To be bested by someone in a spectacular fashion and/or in a way that is humiliating to one. - The Free Dictionary

The answers were fascinating but if you have lived in the Midwest (particularly Illinois) for long enough will likely be able to guess the answers for the surrounding states.

KENTUCKY

ILLINOIS

Illinois is a toss-up, the quick answer could be a fun debate. Sure, there is a lot to do but the traffic, prices for food/drinks/fun, and flight problems at either O'Hare and Midway International Airports could make it pheasible to dislike Chi-town. But, you would be wrong.

The city in Illinois getting dunked on the most, according to Redditors, Rockford gets the honor.
