An industrial town in Southwest Washington state. Longview and Kelso (the town across the
river) are both part of Cowlitz County.
There is hardly anything complimentary to say about this town. There are rarely any
fun events to attend. It is very uncultured,
poor, dirty, and is definitely not showing any signs of improvement. The
air stinks with pollution from the local mills, an open slew of stagnant water and sewage winds throughout all of Longview and Kelso, most of the neighborhoods are rundown, and there is a high rate of drugs, crime, assault, STDs, and
sex offenders/child molesters.
The majority of people that live in Longview are very trashy. Most people start out in life with a teenage pregnancy or
two, drop out of highschool, maybe get into drugs, catch an STD, and learn to scam the system and live off SSI, foodstamps, HUD, and etc. since they have no
education or job and no ambition to get one.
In general, a Longview person loves
drama and has a pack mentality; a very bad combination that causes them to keep that highschool
drama queen/king personality through adulthood of judging others, always believing they're right, and hating anyone who's different or seemingly better than they are........all with the support of their pack of friends.
However, there are some respectable people in Longview of course; even if they're living situations make them appear
like the rest.
Something that happened to me before I moved out of Longview:
Longview chick: Hey
b*tch! I don't like you! Don't look at me like that! I'll kick you're ass!
Me: Errr.....what? Who are you? I don't think I remember you.
Longview chick: Shut up! You stay away from my
man! He and my friends say you've been flirting with him and a bunch of other guys. He doesn't want your herpes you nasty
ho! So back off!
Me: Ha Ha! What are you talking about? I only chatted with him for a couple minutes at the party and I am not a
prostitute with herpes. You and your friends need to get your facts straight.
*I walk away shaking my head*
Longview chick: Blah
blah.....that's right you better run away!.....blah
blah......I'll kick your ass........blah
blah.
*I continue walking* Damn....I'm moving lout of Longview, Washington and back to Olympia, Washington.
