Really Boring Places

Submitted by zarodinu on March 21, 2026

This would be a fun blog series. Writing a 50k word blog about really boring places. The most boring town I've ever been to was Amarillo, Texas. Smelled like dead cows and giant steaks, because that's all it's famous for. It's main landmark was a giant water tower and I-40

I don't know if I'd call them really boring but I've been to my share of nothing cities. Like cities that have a lot of people just for the sake of having a lot of people, like I see no reason for them to be living there. Main two that come to my mind are Redding and Billings, like there's literally nothing there to do why do you people live here lol

Amarillo is awesome if you count Palo Duro Canyon which is like 10 minutes away

Amarillo was dope. I went to the Big Tex and tried the challenge… only got sixty ounces down. It's rough.

I tried to go there, but it was so busy we had to wait 2 hours for a seat.

I don't agree that you can out a city as "boring," but if I had to pick, Des Moines is up there.

Sometimes people live in non-fun places because they can make a living there, or have family connections, or because they feel drawn there.

Boredom is often a first world problem.. though I thought it’s on it’s way out with everything happening in the world…:/
