Dec 13, 2025
Millions of Americans move every year chasing better jobs, cheaper housing, lower crime, or a higher quality of life. But not every move works out the way people expect. In this video, we break down the cities Americans regret moving to the most, ranked from bad to absolutely worst. These are cities with rising crime rates, high cost of living, declining job markets, overpriced housing, high taxes, and daily frustrations that don’t show up in relocation ads or Instagram posts. From cities that were once affordable to places that promised opportunity but delivered regret, we look at why people are leaving, what newcomers didn’t expect, and what life is really like after the honeymoon phase ends. If you’re thinking about relocating, moving for work, retiring, or just curious which U.S. cities people wish they never moved to, this video may save you thousands of dollars — and years of regret.
