Pick any town in the Mississippi delta. It’s the land of the haves and have nots and with the land being completely flat it’s all out in the open. Depressing as hell.

The casino graveyard around Tunica is pretty damn depressing. Heck even the casinos that are still open are sad sights, and the towns around them are all corpses for the most part.
West Louisiana is headed in that direction as well if Texas ever allows Gambling too.
Monroe isn’t a “small town” but it’s also depressing driving through a random “downtown” looking area that’s basically
Just buildings with no industry at this point too.

Interesting bit of history about the Mississippi River. During WW2, they used to build submarines on docks on the Mississippi River and float them down to the Gulf to launch them.

Cleveland is the only Delta town that's viable. Greenville's heyday was from pre WWII through the 1950s. Greenwood was still doing ok until about 15 years ago. It has really nosedived since the pandemic.
